20 Easter Eggs Hidden in Plain Sight That Turned Life Into One Big Egg Hunt

Easter eggs are little jokes, interesting details, hidden messages, or objects that the most attentive and lucky of us find in video games, movies, and other media. Thanks to some gifted and creative people, real life can sometimes turn into a quest for little secrets. An ordinary street pole can turn out to be a cartoon character, and an innocent book store can surprise you with an unexpected horror film scene.

We at Bright Side love searching for Easter eggs in movies and cartoons, and after seeing these 20 pics, we’ll start looking for hidden surprises in real life too. We hope you share our enthusiasm and we wish you a happy hunt!
