| On the afternoon of August 18, 1973 five young people in a Volkswagon van ran out of gas on a farm road in Central Texas. Four of them were never seen again. The next morning the one survivor, Sally Hardesty Enright, was picked up wandering in a roadside rest area on I-35. Blood caked and screaming murder, she said she had broken out of a window in Hell. The girl babbled a mad tale. A cannibal family in a isolated farmhouse... Chain sawed fingers and bones... her brother and her friends hacked up for barbeque... chairs made of human skeletons... Then she sank into catatonia. Texas lawmen mounted a month long manhunt, but could not locate the macabre farmhouse. They could not find the killers or the victims. No facts, no crime. Officially, on the records, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre never happened. However during the last 3 decades, over and over again reports of bizarre, grisly chainsaw mass murders have persisted all along the I-35 corridor. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre has not stopped. It haunts Texas. IT SEEMS TO HAVE NO END. |
