Leatherface Cosplay

The Leatherface Cosplay will put you in the shoes of one of the most iconic horror villains of all time. This character comes from the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

Leatherface is nicknamed after his mask, which is made out of human skin "leather." No one knows what his original appearance might be.

Unlike many other horror villains that seem to want to kill for revenge or malice, Leatherface seems to do so from a place of fear. Many people blame how he is on his controlling family.

He was made to begin killing at a very young age, which eventually led him to a mental asylum following his murder of the sheriff's daughter.

When he escaped from the institute, the same sheriff shot him in the mouth. Now, Leatherface cannot talk, which makes him even scarier.

  2. Linen Shirt
  3. Black Pants
  4. Leatherface Mask
  5. Leatherface Tie
  6. Chainsaw Prop

About Leatherface

Leatherface is one of the most well-known villains in the horror genre. He comes from the movie, Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

In this film, Leatherface is a serial killer. He got his start at a very young age after his parents encouraged him to go on killing sprees.

This is a unique start to his life as a villain and makes it so his motivations are different, too; he seems to kill out of fear instead of revenge or bloodthirst.

Leatherface was sent to an asylum after he killed the local sheriff's daughter. On his way out of the asylum, Leatherface was shot in the mouth. This made it so he is now unable to talk.
