Did Elon Musk have a massive Halloween party in Dracula’s Transylvanian castle for real?

For days, the media was loud with the news that Elon Musk, one of the richest people in the world threw a massive Halloween party in Transylvania. He was allegedly accompanied by several billionaire friends and well-known actors. However, according to the latest information, it may have been just all made up.

The Halloween party took place in Bran Castle

According to foter.ro, Elon Musk, one of the richest people in the world celebrated Halloween with many businessmen and famous stars in Bran Castle, Brasov County in Transylvania. The news portal wrote that some of the guests already arrived on Saturday evening to attend the spooky party held on Sunday evening. However, this turned out to be untrue. No one at the venue actually saw Elon Musk or another reported guest Angelina Jolie, reports transtelex.hu. Other celebrities, including PayPal founder Peter Thiel and his partner Matt Danzeisen, were indeed spotted in Brasov though.

Dinner in Brasov

Although it was said that Elon Musk and his guests allegedly indulged in a traditional Transylvanian dinner and went to enjoy a local folk performance afterwards, it all turned out to be false information. Instead, only Peter Thiel and his partner Matt Danzeisen were caught on camera having lunch in the city center on Sunday, where they tried the traditional Romanian Telemea cheese and other local specialties.
