The truth as in, there is no truth to it?
Leatherface is loosely based off Ed Gein and that's it. There was no family of cannibal killers, no chainsaw and it didn't happen in Texas. The real Ed Gein used to make furniture out of bones and wear people's skin as masks and that's what they borrowed for the character of Leatherface and the setting, but the rest of the movie is fiction.
