Question
is the texas chainsaw massacure based on a true life event or is it fiction?

Answer
a little bit of both. Was there a guy weilding a chainsaw, no. Was there a guy that liked to dress up in dead skin, yes his name was Ed Gein and hes the inspiration for the film. But the movie doesnt portray him in the way that he acted....if you want to know the real story I suggest renting "Ed Gein".
