Thanks for posting this......I was here 10 yrs earlier......high school memories.
only difference then in 1988 , some one was living there and loved the fact that the house was in "the Texas chainsaw massacre" movie so much....that they would dress up like leather face and his "clan" and chase people that came to see their house.....usually on the weekends.
They posted signs up on the property that said " TURN BACK , OR GET HACKED!" "BEWARE OF LEATHER FACE" "GRANDPA'S HUNGRY , PLEASE KNOCK"
Really? Thats pretty cool to hear!
THAT IS AWESOME
Talk about memories! I've visited that place 3x in high school. Couldn't even bring myself to go in the first time. My initials were carved in the wall were Leatherface's sliding steel door was. This house is what sparked my interest in exploring abandoned places. Awesome video!
Start a channel. I love watching people explore abandoned places
The terror that was created in this house will be remembered until the day man no longer exists on this planet. End of story.
This was no doubt a surreal experience for you guys...! I can only imagine being able to have visited this house while it still sat in its original location. I know that it's been restored and moved to another location, but to have seen it, even in this state of disrepair, on its original site would have been monumental! Thanks for sharing this video. :o)
It's a shame that old Victorian house went into such disrepair. I would love to have a property like that, out in the middle of nowhere so I could have my own homestead.
I am so jealous I wish I could of seen it like this! I mean this is like my favorite horror movie of all time!
Nina Flying cupcake Monster we can go to father baby and make love inside of the house
Nina Flying cupcake Monster ~ 👍 Mine too!
and mine
Me too
Ditto
Turned into a restaurant? That's suspicious, yet ironically fitting.
This is amazing!!! Please never remove it. with the location being developed on, this is a great video to have and watch.
he passed in 2013. I thought everyone knew that?
@@PainElemental ???
What?
@@PainElemental who did?
@@thisisadude the video maker. the guy filming the video.
wow, i literally just watched the movie 20 minutes ago and then watched the adamthewoo tour, but it shows how it looks "today" in a different location turned into a diner, the road is completely gone now with grass growing on it, and is almost unrecognizable, then i stumbled upon this "hidden gem" & couldn't believe that you guys actually went to the house and not only showed the outside but gave us the grand fucking tour! that is so fucking cool that you got to see the actual chainsaw house before it was fully demolished, & now people will be able to come watch this tour after they see the film for generations to come! bravo gentlemen, bravo!
Imagine a movie with that happening.
Someone has the permissions todo build a new route or buy some hectareas.
They builders find an old house It looks like no one has living there for months or years. Then a morning someone finds that some workers have disapeared...
They moved the house
AHC 123 yes to kingslands it's now called Antlers Hotel.
Sadly Ktron passed
Wow. Great footage guys! And to the people complaining about the video, umm watch something else and shut up! This is very rare raw footage of the house they used in the 1974 movie. It's gone now! Thanks to the guys who spent hours getting out there and were kind enough to share this.
sadly ktron passed away a few years ago, but he was a huge texas chainsaw fan and all around awesome guy, and I wish his friend in the video took the camera and filmed him walking around too, as we only see his pal.
willfade 79 I thought someone tuned it into a restaurant.
@Paul Secrest
not like this with all the original furniture and location. This is the only way you could have seen it like this.
@@Chaingun i seen it as a restaurant now
@@daviddamron7077 miles and miles away, refurnished
These guys didn't have to take the hrs to load this up on here. I am glad they did. I don't care if the camera is shaky or not. If you don't like their video take your ass down there and see it for your self. God there is always someone talking shit about the video creator. Tired of seeing it
People eat total ass dude. Welcome to society
This is the house. The video was filmed in 1998 right before it was relocated.
Why did they relocate the house
@@hairobsession9646 because it was bought and the new owners wanted it moved from this location to Kingsland
Thank you so much for this video. I have been trying to make a 3D model of this house for VR and this is the best look I have been able to get at the full layout!
Did you ever end up making it?
R..I..P Kelsy brother, this video is very important and will go down in history, not many documented the building before it became a restaurant, thank you man!
I am so glad you videotaped this before the house was moved. I used to live in the subdivision that was right next to the house and property. That entire property is covered in development now.
What an experience. So jealous. I would of taken some souvenirs!.
Same
you stepped foot in a place I can only dream of. you guys are so lucky
why do you think someone sees it is lucky? whats the reason for that?
I see it as Lucky cause it's the Texas Chainsaw house before it was turned into a friggin' bed and breakfast. It's hallowed ground to me, Leatherface's home. The house that the chainsaw built
@@TheEpisodesShowthe land is luxury appartments now. I just drove to go see.
@@verdant2215 yeah they moved the house from that part of land to a different area. Now it's a BBQ place called Hooper's
Like u wanted to be meat hooked?
Wow guys, seriously felt like leather face was watching you guys from the bushes and the video was going to end with the sound if a chainsaw and the camera being suddenly dropped on its side while still filming...whatever happened next...thanks for the video gave me chills when you guys were exploring the inside and going upstairs. Good job!
So cool to see the last footage of the house before it was moved. Thanks for sharing guys.
This is awesome! I’ve been looking for a video of this is the original place and not a video of it relocated and turned into a restaurant. This was from one of my all-time fav films ever!! Def my fav horror film ever!!
This gets recommended to me 10 years later thanks RUclips and you’re shity algorithms. This footage is awesome and fuck all the complainers, we are lucky this footage even exists.
The "grandparents saw it in the newspaper" story is a timeless classic among the TCM realists. Even after hearing this thousands of times, it's still just as fun to read.
Awesome job, guys. This is some pretty priceless footage you have here.
thank you so much for posting this, i love the movies but the house seems so lighthearted, its so bright.
This could work perfectly as the prologue for a new film
9:49 The chainsaw mark is still there on the door frame.
American Gopnik it still look creepy as hell. I love the texas chainsaw massacre my all time favorite movie
LOOK WHAT YOUR BROTHER DID TO THE DOOR!
I can't see anything.
Thanks for posting. A real treat for us fans of TCM.
Awesome footage, went recently to old quick hill road and was amazed too see how much development has happened even in the last 20 years comparing with this video. Was super cool to finally see it regardless!
It's a lot less stressful to just skip to the part where we go in the house
I enjoyed the walking part - makes it scarier looking! Thanks guys for sharing it experience :y
This footage should be cherished. It should be preserved honestly!! There’s not a lot of videos of the original house in its original location.
Great video. Thanks for posting. Must have been quiet impressive to be at exactly that place where this brilliant horrorfilm has been shot.
It's weird to see that there is absolutely nothing there now. It's even more weird to imagine the whole place replaced by apartments and condos in the near future. I wish I was super rich so I could buy and preserve that land, build a replica of the Sawyer and Old Farm houses and allow fans of the franchise to stay a night or two in them.
Those damn farmers who sold the land
@@residentevil5fan18 Can't blame them, times are different. Unless you are super wealthy, a farm (or ranch) these days are financially sustainable.
@@roadkillz78 i work in roundrock and they are starting construction at this location now
@@residentevil5fan18 😞
@@residentevil5fan18 That's too bad, part of me wanted to make a pilgrimage there to see what was left of "the farm". Eventually, it will be unrecognizable.
they should have taken the circular handle from the staircase. It was screen-seen in the movie, and there was nobody for miles to stop them, plus when the demolition crew turned this place into a Diner years later, they removed all the furniture from inside and dumped it anyway so it was just 'garbage' but to horror fans those items inside are props.
Yup. Pretty sure they grabbed something when they turned the camera off
To be exact, It was shot in 1973.
However this video is a piece of treasure, never ever delete it.
May that road and that land never forgotten
A nice solid house. I like that woodwork. Would make a great rehab.
*facepalm
Carson Cunningham You have no clue what I'm even talking about lol
That movie scared the shit out of me ;best Horror film ever made,Halloween is 1B.
David Mazzini ~ 👍Yes! It was so creepy and seemed so real watching it back in 1974. The words on the screen at the beginning of the movie made it seem even more factual. 😳🤣
Hard to believe that the entire area is now a housing an apartment complex. In 1974 it was open farm land as far as you could see now it's a huge developed area.
I have lived around there in the 60s and I can remember grave roberies, a lot of people missing also. Go to the library and look up old newspaper clippings dated from the 50s or 60s. You will be supprised what you can find. The movie industry picked this spot for a reason. That was an awesome video you made. I thought I was back in Texas for a minute. Some day I will be back.
LOOSELY is probably the most used uppercase word when talking Ed Gein and TCM
be careful the leatherface might attack
I wonder how these 2 grown men would’ve reacted if they just heard a random chainsaw get cranked up in the middle of the tour 😂
Excellent video guys!!! Well done!! Please do not delete it. Big TCM fan!!!
he passed away in 2013, this video isn't going anywhere

It looks like they where getting it ready to be relocated. It was in the process of being moved to another location.
What is the exact meaning of the term 'relocate'? I mean, I understand what you're saying but this is a house! How do you relocate an entire house? Especially when it's rundown like that. Don't you just tear it down? They did the same with the Michael Myers house.
Great footage guys! I felt like I was back in the movie after seeing your video. I read that the former occupants that were renting the house at the time the movie was out would rev up a chainsaw to scare trespassers off the property. Not sure if that is true or not, but that would do it for me,
Great footage, it sure does look like the house where they filmed, Thanks for posting
they r so brave to get that close to the house I would be scared of a ghost or something jumping out or hearing the chainsaw
Daisy Bromley ghosts aren’t real, though.
You know that movie is a work of fiction right? It's loosely based off a real killer but most of the movie is made up (like the locations). The only thing they had to fear was maybe some crackheads getting high in that house lol
You sound like bitch “hearing tue chainsaw that man is dead u stupid and he only killed 2 ppl and wtf “ghost” ghost cant physically touch u or harm you but on the other hand there is demons but that’s different to ghost
Awesome!
Well done guys! Thanks very much. Regards from Australia.
Just finished a tour, cannot even see the original road anymore, had to trespass to see it, so cool.
I would love to buy this beautiful home!!
Michelle Vera go take a nap
lool
SIR LOIN go take a nap
@@jacobr9048 go take a nap
I came to see this video again.
The path from hilltop to the house, 5:38~ especially this scene, makes me feel sooo nostalgic.
I'm not from the Sawyer family.
This is awesome! Actually looks like you're in the movie
Awesome vid guys, thanks for sharing.
I would laugh so hard if the texas chainsaw dude just jumped out the house and hacked them to pieces
Wat happen to this family now ? Are they in jail or in hospital for crazy people
dave. jb the family never existed, it was just a movie.
***** lol you should read the news paper. Or go on google and youll see if its not true or true. The story was true. The story was true and its written in the news paper of texas.
dave. jb I'm a pretty big horror fan and watched a few interviews with Tobe Hooper the director. In these interviews he stated that he based the story off of the real life killer Ed Gein. I'm sure there are some crazy people in Texas but I would need to see a real news story to believe that.
***** do you know why the mask guy cut the body humans and take there skin faces and put it on his face !? Ill tell you why ! When he was a kid he had a problem with his skin face and everyone at school laugh at him. He dont have friends and never had friends because everyone making a fool out of him but he wasnt a boy who like to hurt the others. Ed gein that day came to him and he took care of him and he start playing with his mind saying to this poor kid that ; all your friends hate you and they dont like you, you should hurt them because they are bad. That day this kid became the masked guy who hurt everyone that he look at, taking there faces off......the masked guy thinks that ed gein is his father and he was like his sidekick. The story is true... ed gein mom is a crazy bitch who always said to him when he was a kid that alll the girls out of the farm are bitchs who cheat and lie to the others. Thats why ed gein is bad ..... the story is true... and if you really saw the interviews about ed gein.... it seems that some interviews you didnt watch them..... because i saw this interview and i am telling you the story about this crazy familly.... and if you dont beleive me go on youtube to see the interviews...... and yea i like horror movies tooo . This movie is my favorite. And just to say if you know or not ..... they made an example of the story in other movies because its actually a great horror movie. Example like: wrong turn 1 2 3 4 5 .... if you watch wrong turn before... you can see that those familys who eat people... its because of the texas masacre story.... the texas masacre.. is an idea to make other new horror film storys. You seem that you dont watch enough interviews about films..... your rite that you watch horror movies... but i watched horror movies and also all there interviews since 2000
Not it is not. It was inspired by a true story which is based on the true Ed Grin in Plainfield , WI. FACT
Chris Jr Ed Genn.
not inspired. loosely inspired. Hitchhiker's grave robbing and bone furniture talents were bits of Ed. Drayton's social skills, but had a dark secret house where he kept his grandmas corpse was bits of Ed. Leatherface's skin masks were bits of Ed. all 3 of them had just little bits of Ed in them.
June 25th 2022, sadly the property is now under renovation for new construction. Chain link fence now surrounds the entire area. Glad I got to see it earlier this year for the first and last time.
Texas needs to make this an official tourist stop, so it never becomes destroyed or forgotten. It's second only to the Alamo in historic importance.
realshit my grandpa knew his dad realshit R.I.P GP but it's true
SIR LOIN no but whatever his grandad did during his life is probably a whole lot more than what your racist chubby ass is doing huh
love the camera 'work'... great imitation of incompetentcy
We weren't thinking anything about camera technique. The last thing we were thinking about was impressing someone like you.
Well if you want people to look at it, you should do them the favor of making it watchable. I'm not here to be impressed, I hoped to actually be able to see something about the history of the place. 5 min of you walking down a road pointing at nothing is a waste of everyone's time. Firehosing the camera around like a spazz is not so watchable either. If you're gonna do this stuff, respect the viewers. This could have been good. Learn from it.
telebob It is what it is. Now, please go pester someone else.
lmao dude is someone really fucking complaining about this video? THIS VIDEO? This might as well be the best video on RUclips. Seriously man, you were given an entire fucking football field with this video and you still had the nerve to ask for another yard. Get real. Kelsey I wouldnt even respond. There's other TCM location visit videos on YT but this is by far the most epic. I enjoyed it immensely along with the 2nd part. I appreciate it as Im sure all real Chainsaw fans do as well. Good job bud, wish I could have been fortunate enough to visit the house in its original location. I envy you :) Take care
u rock Kelsey *****
Thank you for that heartfelt comment . Probably one of my favorites since posting this
this is absolutely amazing. i would have loved to have gone here back in the 80s and 90s. the place is hardly recogniseable today. they carefully took the house apart and moved it to Kingsland tx. did you know that the grandfather house from the movie was opposite this house back when it was filmed but it burnt down shortly after the film was made..
yes they did. its when sally is looking at the zebras on the wall.
which house do u want to know about this one or the grandparents
he is on about the old grandparents house. which they all visit before the main house. when they reach the grandparents, Franklin starts cutting up the van. just as a reminder. that house got burnt down a few months after the movie was finished
no. you still have the graveyard from the start, gas station,( which jas been bought and going to be remodeled) and quick hill ( where the house was). but there's not much too see there half of it has been built over and very unrecognisable today
We Just missed it! We went after the house was gone! But we at night. I loved it! Even without the house. Seeing them walk down that dirt road brought back a fun night! Thanks for this video. =]
Thank you for preserving and sharing this rare footage. Does anyone know when the iconic windmill came down? They should put one up next to the restaurant.
thanks! makes me want to watch it again.
It may just be a film location....BUT....it's a great horror film icon. Thanks for the tour!
The restaurant is in Kingsland Texas it's called the Grand Central Cafe , great food too
Headcheese
Thanks man. We fight the TCM realists on a daily basis, never backing down.
thats cool its very interesting to see old abandoned sets from old scary movies
That looks like the original wallpaper from the movie...would have been nice to grab a bunch of it before the building was moved and remodeled. BIG $$$ to collectors im guessing!
That is so awesome thanks for sharing, I know that they moved the house and turned into some kind of diner but to actually see it in its original location. Wow.
he passed in 2013, but you could donate to the research of the cancer he died from as thank you for him making this video, so others don't have to suffer it
I wonder if the guys making this videos took or found any leftover movie props, bones, pieces of chairs, wall covering etc etc. it would be so cool a small piece of movie history
Wow! amazing video!
GREAT VIDEO MAN ENJOYED
Brilliant video guys of the ORIGINAL 1974 Texas chainsaw massacre house and Rd. from the uk. 👊👊
To me this is the last video document of the original TCM house. The restaurant that stands today has gone through too many changes, it's just a facade
Are you getting the game when it releases?!
They have moved this house to Kingsland, Texas and it's now a Restaurant. Me and my sister are planning in taking a trip to eat there..I sure hope we get to see it. I watched the movie when I was a kid, and it was scary. It is really amazing the remodel of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre house. I think I seen it in 1979. I was about three when it aired at the show. But it's a good thriller...
Very well put.
Damn why am I just seeing this now. I hope that house is somehow protected. Wonder if it's still there today. It's a piece of film history.
It's now restored and move to another place, they cut the house in few pieces, it's called "Grand Central Café" :) still located in Texas, kingsland :)
@@maxaazerty nice, that's great to hear. Appreciate the info!
It’s next to Antlers Inn and is called „Hoopers“ today apparently
Amazing , absolutely amazing
Amazing to see it then compared to how it looks now. And it's sad to see that there's nothing out there now. Even the road is disappearing. Theres a guy filming videos there now. I just watched one where he tried to find the location of the dry creek bed that Pam and Kirk wanted to swim in. It's frustrating as hell because there's nothing there anymore, no way to line up shots or anything.
It was falling into disrepair and vandalism by some tourists. The last of the family had moved out in '97 and the county road was re-routed around the hill, so access became more troublesome. At least now it is well preserved in the tiny hill country town of Kingsland. The original site in Round Rock is partially transformed into a big retail space. I live about two exits south of this location and I visit with friends every now and again. It's not the same. It's better off in Kingsland.
Taken from the video description above: Video from an August 1998 visit to Quick Hill in Round Rock, Texas, the site of the house and property used in the filming of 1974's horror classic, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. This is the last known video footage taken of the house before it was relocated later that month to Kingsland, Texas and converted in to a restaurant.
My current job address is on Quick Hill Road...possibly directly where the house was. Love it!
You're OK man. Thanks for checking out the video
Probably the last vid of chainsaw movie history right here.. the house at the original location amazing watching this nine years after!
Old but timeless. Gotta love 'em.
I was up on this property on July 18, 2001.
The house was gone but it was still an amazing experience.
Had it been developed on? Was it still desolate and creepy at the time?
Wait did they take the house down?
Thanks for watching our video.
This is so cool
Oh well thats really cool to see it in its original form, thanks.
So, I grew up in Round Rock in the 80s and early 90s. I can confirm the location and the fact that a family was living there when we tried to go to the house.
Awesome man!!! It looks like these dudes are part of the movie!!! Really bad ass they took the time to film this. It feels like someone was going to pop out at any time!!!! Looks exactly like the movie. Jajajajjaja
I shouldn't laugh but your comment just had me laughing to myself picturing it happening lol
Great video guys :-)
It wasn't in Plugerville. It was Round rock. Unless you live here you would be confused were the line starts and stops. If you ever come here, the line starts by Ricks cabaret. Before they started building LaFrontiera plaza we could see the house on the hill by the water tower.
Surprisingly it is a astonishly beutiful house!
