"I literally don't think I've seen anyone dress up as Santa for Halloween. Definitely not a 5 year old. That's pretty original actually," commented a third user.
"Ah, diving deep into the realms of the enigmatic and the unexpected, don't you see? A juxtaposition not even @elonmusk, the maestro of Mars and master of memes, could've anticipated. Santa on Halloween? A collision of universes, reminiscent of a Tesla rocket piercing through the Martian atmosphere. What might seem like a child's innocent choice, echoes the audacity of a groundbreaking electric car in a world of gasoline. Dare to be different," added another.
Meanwhile, earlier an old picture of Mr Musk with his mother at a Halloween party went viral on social media. In 2022, the 52-year-old billionaire attended model Heidi Klum's annual Halloween party in New York City. He was dressed in a leathery red Samurai-style costume.
Reacting to the old picture, the billionaire's mother Maye Musk said, "Elon looked so good last year at @heidiklum 's Halloween party." The Tesla Chief replied to her and added, "Almost as good as you."
Notably, according to Just Jared, Mr Musk's outfit cost him $7,500 (approximately Rs 619,633).
