Texas Chain Saw Massacre Pt. 2

September 12, 2016

First off on the list of locations was the original 1974 house.  No longer in it's original Round Rock, TX location, it was purchased in 1998, cut into 6 pieces and moved to Kingsland, TX.  It's now a quaint little cafe, next to quaint little hotels, and quaint little shops, and quaint little parks.  A little paint, some bleach, and you got a fine establishment going for you. Still creepy as fuck once you get your imagination going though. 

Grand Central Cafe.  Seems like a great place to have a cup of afternoon tea.

Even in it's new location and with the face lift, fans from all over travel to pay homage to the grand old home. Just walking on the porch was a little eerie.  If you walk into the cafe itself, the staircase is in full view and that famous hallway.  def worth a visit and a photo.
