Who was the real Texas chainsaw killer?

Despite being heavily touted as inspired by a true story, both Tobe Hooper’s original 1974 film and the 2003 Marcus Nispel remake are only lightly based on the real-life murderer Ed Gein, who is suspected to have talked several victims between 1954 and 1957.
