Halloween in Western culture is known as the “devil festival”, usually held annually on October 31, marking the end of the harvest season and the arrival of a cold winter. At the same time, this is also an occasion to remember the Saints or deceased relatives. For many years, this festival has been introduced to Vietnam and is very popular with young people.

"People enjoy this day but are not too enthusiastic about it. Moreover, only a few people like to play and decorate for Halloween, and the prices are more expensive than before, so this year we do not expect too many customers. Instead, we focus on importing more autumn decoration items to increase the choices for customers," this person said.
