2025's Most Popular Halloween Costumes Include K-Pop Demon Hunters and 2 Very Millennial Surprises

It seems we’ve blinked, and suddenly, Halloween is right around the corner.

That means it’s time for the launch of Google Frightgeist, which includes a list of the top 25 trending costumes this year, according to Google Trends. If you’ve been keeping up with popular culture this year, it should come as no surprise that the top five belong solely to K-Pop Demon Hunters, which recently earned the title of being Netflix’s most-watched movie ever. According to Frightgeist, the K-Pop Demon Hunter characters sitting in the top five are: Rumi, Zoey, Mira, Jinu and Baby Saja, as they have had the highest traffic spike over these past several weeks.

That isn’t the only thing catching my attention, however. As a millennial who grew up in the 2000s, I am *super* shocked to see Donnie Darko and Lord Farquaad (Ahem, Shrek) sitting in the top 25 as well. Elphaba and Glinda from Wicked are also in the top 25, which is no surprise considering the sequel makes its way to theaters next month. These witches sit alongside other fun characters like Toothless from How to Train Your Dragon, Supergirl, Superman and Wednesday.
