The 'Twilight' actor was shocked when he tried to leave the bathroom facilities at a recent comic book convention only to be greeted by three people in extraterrestrial outfits.
A source said: "They blocked him when he tried to exit. Robert panicked, but then the alien monsters whipped off their scary headgear and revealed they were just three giggly Earth gal fans!"
As well as hiring outfits, the trio of girls were wearing huge platform shoes to make themselves look taller.
When the fans realised the 23-year-old actor was nervous, they removed their masks and asked for his autograph.
The source added: "Robert thought it was a hilarious stunt and gave the girls everything they wanted."
Robert was not the only star to get up close and personal to a fan at the convention.
Cameron Diaz agreed to marry one lucky man after he proposed to her while she was being quizzed at the event in San Diego.
