The Twitter owner's costume for Heidi Klum's Halloween party featured Baphomet heads and inverted crosses.

Billionaire Elon Musk's MAGA Christian fans reacted negatively after he attended Heidi Klum's annual Halloween bash while wearing what they've described as a "satanic" costume.

Musk wore a red and black samurai-style outfit complete with Baphomet heads and inverted crosses that is listed online as “Devil’s Champion-Leather Armor.”


The costume reportedly cost $7,500 and Musk posted photos to Twitter—which he recently acquired—of himself posing while wearing it.

The costume has a goat's head emblazoned on its front, which–along with the inverted crosses–is a classic Satanist symbol that also features in numerous occult traditions.

Baphomet—or the Sabbatic Goat—is a deity allegedly worshipped by the Knights Templar that subsequently became incorporated into various occult and Western esoteric traditions. Baphomet is a symbol of balance, representing the goal of perfect social order.

But many of Musk's Evangelical Christian followers were upset by his costume choice and openly attacked him for his overt display of what at least one person referred to as "antichrist imagery."




The costume also drew the ire of Anthony Scott, an opinion writer for the far-right conspiracy theory website The Gateway Pundit. Scott questioned whether Musk—who took the helm at Twitter after months of decrying its content moderation policies and what he perceives as its attacks against free speech—had pushed an unnecessary limit.

Scott wrote:

“Musk’s take on free speech should be celebrated but as of right now it’s quite fair to question why the world’s richest man, who is also a major U.S. Defense contractor (SpaceX) and is the owner of Neural Link a company attempting to hook the human brain up to computers is wearing the Baphomet coupled with inverted crosses as if its a badge of honor."

Musk's costume wasn't the only costume worn by a celebrity to make headlines.

Klum herself stunned attendees when she arrived to her party dressed as a giant earthworm, the final product of a process she'd spent documenting on Instagram.

Meanwhile, musician Janelle Monae attended a separate event dressed as Diva Plavalaguna—complete with blue skin and head-to-toe tentacles—from the 1997 cult classic The Fifth Element.

Melania Just Held A Bizarre Press Conference To Debunk 'False Smears' Related To Jeffrey Epstein—And Everyone Had The Same Response

First Lady Melania Trump had everyone thinking the same thing after she held a bizarre press conference on Thursday to deny that she had anything but casual ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the late disgraced financier, pedophile, sexual abuser, and sex trafficker.

Mrs. Trump publicly denied any ties to convicted sex offenders Epstein and his procurer Ghislaine Maxwell, saying claims linking her to Epstein are “lies” meant to damage her reputation. She said she met her husband, President Donald Trump at a New York City party in 1998 and did not meet Epstein until 2000, contradicting a witness statement in the Epstein files that alleges Epstein introduced the couple.

Dem Rep. Sarah McBride Perfectly Shames Nancy Mace For Her Transphobic Response To McBride's Condemnation Of Trump

Delaware Democratic Representative Sarah McBride pushed back at South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace after Mace responded with transphobia to McBride's criticism of President Donald Trump's genocidal threat to kill the "whole civilization" of Iran.

Trump has insisted that God supports his war on Iran and declared—before a provisional ceasefire was announced—that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" ahead of a deadline to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges that legal scholars and world leaders have said would constitute war crimes.

Comedian Explains How Millennials' Midlife Crises Are Different From Past Generations—And He's Spot On

Don't make promises you cannot keep, unless your goal is to hurt someone.

Millennials know that practically better than anyone. They were fed a long and impassioned series of advice, hyper-focused on the importance of getting a college degree in order to find a good job. They were also force-fed traditionalist ideals of getting married, having kids, and buying a nice house with the money they'd be making from that great job, of course.
