Nestled in small-town Texas, there’s a place where horror and hospitality collide.

It's called Hooper’s, a one-of-a-kind restaurant in Kingsland, Texas. This isn’t just any old building. It’s the actual house from the 1974 horror classic The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Instead of running for your life, though, you’ll be sitting down to a nice meal.

From the outside, the house still looks a little creepy, just like in the movie. But inside, things feel more fun than frightening. The walls are covered with memorabilia from the film, making it part restaurant, part museum. Fans of horror movies can check out old props, photos, and decorations that remind them of the terrifying scenes that made the movie famous. Upstairs, there’s even an exhibit with more cool artifacts that give visitors a behind-the-scenes look at the film.
