Today, host Karl Stefanovic posted to Instagram to show off his terrifying Halloween costume, which turned out to be a little too much for his daughter Harper.
In a lighthearted vein, Stefanovic posted a video to his Instagram account of himself donning an inflatable alien costume that hilariously gave the illusion of an alien being whisked away.
The witty presenter joked about himself and captioned the creepy post: ‘I might not be there tomorrow. Happy Halloween’.
Little did he know that the jovial jape would bring tears to his three-year-old daughter’s eyes.
Toddler Harper, visibly upset by her father’s transformation into an “alien captive,” was heard exclaiming, “I want daddy back.”
