Leatherface is the lead character in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie series. He first appears in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre as a cannibalistic and mentally unstable mass murderer who, alongside his family, kidnaps, kills, and cooks unsuspecting travelers who venture near their ranch in an unidentified part of Texas. The character’s name comes from his masks of human skin. The character was largely inspired by real-life murderer Ed Gein, who also wore masks made of human skin.
