    The story of Ed Gein, who was a serial killer from Wisconsin. He did kill people and use their skin to make things, and yes, this included a mask. But he didn't use a chainsaw, and the mask wasn't that big a part of his story.

    • So I take it when the producers of the movie Texas Chainsaw Massacre state that it is "based on a true story," they are using the phrase quite loosely...
