Japan’s hilarious “Mundane Halloween” trend is back! This trend was started back in 2014 by people who wanted to dress in “super ordinary things and embody very day-to-day situations.” If you’re too embarrassed to go all out in a full costume, but still want to participate in a clever and subtle way, this is for you!
