All tricks, no treats.
Halloween 2020 is going to be so different this year.
Everything is cancelled, including trick-or-treating, due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
“Door-to-door trick-or-treating is not allowed because it can be very difficult to maintain proper social distancing on porches and at front doors especially in neighborhoods that are popular with trick or treaters,” the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health said in its recently released guidelines. “‘Trunk-or-treating’ events where children go from car to car instead of door to door to receive treats are also not allowed.”
Gatherings or parties with non-household members are not permitted, even if held outdoors, and neither are carnivals, festivals, live entertainment or haunted house attractions.
Time to start planning an indoor, socially-distant Tim Burton movie binge instead!
