In 10 years, Halloween may be a part of Vietnam. This article implies that it is already starting to creep in (and we did see a few things in the supermarket here in a tiny display):

Halloween in Hanoi
It is not the holiday we're used to (no pumpkins, no trick-or-treaters, 85 degree weather), but we were able to celebrate Halloween here with a few costumes and a party for the kids. It was a lot of fun -- and a little surreal -- to celebrate Halloween with people that had never celebrated it before. I mean, who's never heard of the Great Pumpkin?!? Or even Charlie Brown for that matter? But we had a good time tonight. We may not have had pumpkins to carve, but we had seafood curry pizza. Happy Halloween, Vietnam style!
