Is it a trivial exercise to find a $4D$ analog to Alexander's Horned Sphere? In other words, is there a manifold homeomorphic to $S^3$, embedded in $mathbb R^4$ that has a wild complement?
Thank you.

I don't think anything concerning Alexander's horned sphere is trivial...

I recommend to have a look into
Rushing, T. Benny. Topological embeddings. Vol. 52. Academic Press, 1973.
Theorem 2.6.1 gives a positive answer to your question. But this is not a "trivial exercise".
However, if you have wild sphere $S subset mathbbR^n$, then you get an obvious embedding of the suspension $Sigma S$ into $mathbbR^n+1$.
If $mathbbR^n backslash S$ is not uniformly locally 1-connected (1-ULC, see Rushing), then one can show that $mathbbR^n+1 backslash Sigma S$ also fails to be 1-ULC. Thus $Sigma S subset mathbbR^n+1$ is again a wild sphere. This applies to the horned sphere.
