Halloween is not just a single-day celebration. It is an entire season filled with tricks and treats. People dress up in spooky costumes and attend eerie ghost tours in Hanoi. As the festival approaches, Hanoi is hosting crazy parties and Halloween events this weekend.

Seen Escape at No 15-17, Lane 143 Quang Hoa Street in Cau Giay District, Hanoi, is a live-action game featuring various thrilling Halloween-themed games.
This haunted house offers two main game themes: adventure and horror, with four scary rooms including the Attic, Cemetery, Basement, and Magic World.
When participating in these live-action games, players must collect hidden clues and data to decipher spiritual phenomena or escape from the torture and pursuits of the villains in the terrifying game rooms.
To add more horror to the game, players can choose to interact or not interact with the villains. The price for each 60-minute game ranges from VND149,000 to VND169,000 (around US$7).
Meanwhile, those who enjoy puzzles and challenging brain games can visit Miss Terry on Floor 10, No 381 Doi Can Street, Hanoi. The puzzle room in the center of the game, combined with horror elements, will provide players with an unprecedented experience.
Without physical effects, these escape rooms primarily use psychological tricks to create fear in players. However, the goal is simple: find a way out of the room within 60 minutes. Prices start from VND400,000 or $16 for a team with unlimited members.

Duc Chien, a Hanoi resident from Thuong Tin District, mentioned that he is participating in the Halloween Run 2022 to pass on his son’s love for marathons.
“It doesn’t matter if you win or lose, but this is a great opportunity for the family to bond during the 2022 Halloween season,” he said.
