Rewatched this classic last night. Any fright night fans here?
Recently visited the original house from “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre” (1974) in Kingsland, Tx. Which now operates as a charming little cafe named “Hooper’s” to honor the film’s director. I’m grateful that artifacts like this are kept preserved for nerds to admire 53 years later.
