* MaskOfSanity: Drayton makes an effort to present himself as sound of mind, but does slip on occasion and shown to be just as sadistic as his family. Most notably during the dinner he can't help himself from taking glee in Sally's suffering only to seemingly catch himself letting these feelings slip and correcting himself.
Added DiffLines:
* NoNameGiven: In the first film he is simply credited as "Old Man" and referred to as "the Cook" by Nubbins. In the second film he and the rest of the family get names.

Erin is not to blame for the deaths of her friends, weird that someone had that takeaway from the movie. By all accounts she did the most rational thing, dumping the body would've just led to it coming back on them and looking more suspicious.

* BadPeopleAbuseAnimals: The reason he got a job at the slaughterhouse in the first was to inflict his sadistic desires onto the animals there, most notably using a sledgehammer to kill cows with (though he claims it's because it's supposedly more effective that way, the [[{{Sadist}} real reason why is too obvious]]).

* PsychopathicManchild: While he doesn't have the mind of a child like his brother, Leatherface, his behavior is still noticeably child-like, with his taunting of Sally being similar to that of how a school-yard bully behaves.
* NoSocialSkills: When he is picked up by the protagonists in their van, he thinks it is perfectly normal to show them photos of animals he has killed, cut himself in-front of said protagonists for no reason, attempting to start a fire, again, for no reason, and then cutting one of the protagonists' arms without any provocation. Predictably, this gets him kicked out from the van.
