"Who knew Neil Patrick Harris had a nipple piercing?\r\nThe How I Met Your Mother actor, 39, surprised partygoers at the Playboy Mansion in L.A.&amp;apos;s Holmby Hills area Oct. 27 when he dressed up as a shirtless vampire. Sporting colored contacts and a black velvet cape, Harris and his fiance, David Burtka, 37, toured the &amp;quot;Castle of Lost Souls&amp;quot; haunted house before strolling through the makeshift graveyard. (The couple are parents to twins Gideon and Harper, 2. The family wore Peter Pan inspired costumes in 2011.)\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I absolutely love Halloween,&amp;quot; Harris told Ellen DeGeneres last fall. &amp;quot;It&amp;apos;s the best thing in the whole year.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nOther celebrities who hit up the Playboy Mansion&amp;apos;s Halloween party included Chris Brown, Heidi Montag, Jeremy Renner, Kendra Wilkinson, Kelsey Grammer, Ne-Yo, Dev Patel, David Hasselhoff and Paris Hilton. Taio Cruz and Sean &amp;quot;Diddy&amp;quot; Combs performed.\r\n\r\nHarris&amp;apos; How I Met Your Mother -- also starring Jason Segel, Alyson Hannigan, Josh Radnor and Cobie Smulders -- airs Mondays at 8 p.m. EST on CBS."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
