Jason Gaston

I had lunch inside the house from The Texas Chain Saw Massacre—and somehow, chili was still on the menu.

In this episode of Travels with Jason, I visit Hooper’s in Kingsland, Texas, the beautifully restored Victorian house that horror fans will recognize as the original Sawyer family home from the 1974 classic The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Thankfully, the current owners have replaced the meat hooks, bone furniture, and deeply questionable family dinners with a welcoming restaurant and considerably better health-code compliance.

Join me as I explore the house, talk about its strange journey from movie location to Texas restaurant, and find out what it is like to peacefully eat lunch inside one of the most infamous homes in horror history.

Will Leatherface take my order?
Is the chili made from tourists?
And is it considered rude to ask whether the chainsaw comes with unlimited refills?

Watch the video to find out!
