A family of “Twilight” fans got the surprise of a lifetime when Robert Pattinson dropped by their house unannounced earlier this week.
Maria Mele was responsible for the visit after sending pictures to Oprah Winfrey of her family looking just like the fictional Cullens from the vampire series.
Mele, from Naperville, Illinois, sent in the snaps in hope of getting tickets to Oprah’s Twilight special, to be aired May 13, but instead R Patz himself came knocking at their door.
“[My family and I] all lost it,” Mele told People magazine of the visit on Tuesday. “[We were] screaming like a bunch of maniacs. We were all amazed that he was in our house.”
“Robert was genuinely happy to fulfill our dream. I still can’t believe it,” Maria adds. “It’s something we will never forget. I have to say although Oprah and Robert were great, hearing my kids say ‘thanks for making this happen’ [was] absolutely priceless.”
