Elon Musk, the richest man on the planet, along with Angelina Jolie and other mega-billionaires, would spend Halloween at Bran Castle.
Some of the world’s richest people, including Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk and famous artists such as Angelina Jolie, will attend a VIP Halloween party at Bran Castle in Transylvania, Romania. The castle was featured in Bram Stoker’s Dracula, although, historically speaking, there was no connection between the famous vampire and the picturesque structure.
According to the local newspaperziare.com, the party will include Sergey Brin (founder of Google), Luke Nosek (co-founder of PayPal), Steve Jurvetson (founder of Hotmail and current board member of Space X), Larry Page (co-founder of Google), as well as several celebrities from the art world.
Peter Thiel, founder of PayPal, and billionaire Matt Danzeisen have arrived in Romania by private plane and checked into a luxury hotel in the capital.
The party would be organized by the owner of Bran Castle, Archduke Dominic von Habsburg.
According to another Romanian newspaper, gandul.ro, more than 200 important people have announced their participation in this event. This makes it probably the most important event of its kind in Romania. The title in Gandul.ro, suggested that the Tesla owner would have rented the castle for the event.
The event will be attended by business leaders, artists, producers, etc.
The guests would have been picked up from the official lounge and transported to a luxury hotel in the capital’s center, Bucharest.
According to mediaflux.ro the organizers wanted to keep the event secret, but it leaked. On the link, you will see several celebrities traveling to their accommodation in Romania’s capital.
Bran Castle, first built by the Teutonic knights in 1377 to protect Kronstadt (Brasov) from Ottoman attacks, became a key guard post at the Carpathian crossing for the Austro-Hungarian Empire’s rule over Transylvania.
Given to Queen Maria of Romania by local citizens after Transylvania became a Romanian province in the early 1920s, the castle was completely restored. In 1950, after expropriation by the communist government, the castle became a national monument, and a museum of restored buildings in the village was added.
In 2006 the castle was handed over to the heirs of Princess Ileana of Romania and the Archduke of Habsburg, Dominic von Habsburg-Lothringen, Archduchess Maria Magdalena von Holzhausen, and Archduchess Elisabeth Sandhofer. All three were living abroad at the time.
