Welcome everyone. I'm in the middle of
0:19
Texas today. Wide open spaces, cactuses,
0:23
and of course, chainsaw wielding
0:26
maniacs. I'm on the hunt for
0:27
Leatherface. Join me, shall you?
0:36
The events of that day were to lead to
0:36
the discovery of one of the most bizarre
0:38
crimes in the annals of American
0:40
history, the Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
1:18
It is believed that the indictment is
1:18
only one of a series to be handed down
1:21
as a result of a special grand jury
1:23
investigation.
1:30
Right there resting on that gravestone
1:30
is where the bodies were. You can tell
1:32
by this and this angled tombstone here.
1:35
The camera would have pulled back
1:36
towards where we're at and the bodies of
1:38
the skeletons right there. Wired to a
1:41
large monument. A second body was found
1:44
in a ditch near the perimeter of the
1:46
cemetery. Subsequent investigation has
1:48
revealed at least a dozen empty crypts,
1:51
and it's feared more will turn up as the
1:53
probe continues.
2:13
Fire.
2:13
You ready for this? Check this out.
2:19
Look, uh, I got some good barbecue here.
2:22
Why don't you fellas stick around here a
2:24
while? The transport will be by in a
2:27
little while. As they were running out
2:28
of gas, they would have pulled straight
2:29
up there and drove the van in and
2:32
stopped right there on that concrete.
2:44
The gas pumps of course have all been
2:44
removed, but you can see this tree and
2:46
that telephone pole in the background
2:48
still all the same after all these
2:50
years. The door of course has been
2:51
changed, but look at this. The pattern
2:53
here on the wall is all still the same
2:55
as it is in the movie. Of course, the
2:57
guy washing the windshield's head would
2:59
have been right there. He would have
3:01
been sitting down here, right there.
3:11
You can tell from the movie is exactly
3:11
the same. All this wood here. Still the
3:14
same after all these years. 38 years
3:16
later. It's where he would have filled
3:18
up the bucket of water right there.
3:42
Got to keep these windows clean. Wash,
3:42
wash, wash, wash, wash.
4:18
Here's where the Coke machine would have
4:18
been.
4:41
Does that look familiar? This is the
4:41
famous woods where Leatherface chased
4:43
Sally Hardesty through the woods.
4:56
should have ran straight over there for
4:56
the protection of the gas station. We
4:59
all know how that ended though, don't
5:01
we?
5:07
As if it's not creepy enough out here.
5:07
Check this out. We got a crazy swing.
5:12
Wonder if Leatherface was out here
5:13
swinging on that thing right before he
5:15
started chasing down women. Holy cow.
5:17
What is this?
5:23
You can actually see this tree branch as
5:23
she's running straight towards the gas
5:25
station there.
5:46
I'll be safe here. I'll wait for Adam
5:49
the Woo. Price of electricity is uh
5:52
enough to put a man out of business.
5:59
There's been a countless amount of
5:59
sequels and remakes of the Texas
6:01
Chainsaw Massacre, but I got to go with
6:03
the best one being the first one, 1974.
6:06
What do you think?
6:09
Gotcha. coffee.
6:19
I got to say, after seeing the movie
6:20
probably over a hundred times, it's very
6:22
unusual and very awkward feeling to be
6:25
sitting right in front of this
6:28
tasty
7:16
Huh?
7:34
Wow.
7:44
Look what your brother did to that
7:46
store.
7:48
Watch out for Leather Face.
7:57
running around.
7:57
His ghost still lives here.
8:06
Beware.
8:09
I thought you was in a hurry.
8:18
She would have jumped out of that window
8:18
right there and fell straight down. This
8:20
addition here was built on.
8:42
Definitely on someone's farmland. I
8:42
don't see any cows out here though. No
8:44
cows.
9:05
You can see all the remnants of the
9:05
concrete that used to be here 38 years
9:07
ago.
9:10
There's some more original brick from
9:12
the road.
9:13
This is pretty awesome.
9:23
Right here was the entrance to the
9:23
house. This is where the hitchhiker was
9:25
chasing Sally straight down towards that
9:28
road.
9:42
I think that little road sign right
9:42
there pretty much proves that this used
9:44
to be the road. Obviously, look at that.
9:47
There's the concrete. There's the corner
9:49
right there where the truck turned.
10:11
Truck driver would have thrown the
10:11
wrench, nailed him in the head.
10:21
He would have fell down right about
10:21
here. The chainsaw would have buried
10:23
itself right in his leg right there.
10:54
Leather face right there.
11:17
When I look, you you boys don't want to
11:17
go mess around old house. Those things
11:21
is dangerous. You're liable to get hurt.
11:25
What about Adam the Woo?
