LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- A traditional Halloween with trick-or-treaters going door-to-door for candy will not be allowed in Los Angeles County this year because of the coronavirus pandemic.
County health officials have released guidelines for Halloween this year that include restrictions of some of the holiday's most basic traditions.
LA Halloween restrictions:
No door-to-door trick-or-treating. Officials say "it can be very difficult to maintain proper social distancing on porches and at front doors."
No "trunk or treating" either. Children will similarly not be allowed to collect treats going car-to-car as an alternative to door-to-door.
No parties. The county says gatherings with non-household members are not allowed, not even outdoors.
No carnivals, festivals, live entertainment or haunted houses.

No parties in a private home? It is fricking laughable that they think they have the legal power to outlaw this.

“If you’re looking for someone to blame this is Trumps America. It’s happening on his watch.”
“This could all end just vote Biden.”

It is not even 24 hours after the announcement and they are already walking it back. Instead of being "not permitted," it is now "not recommended":

L.A. County walks back Halloween ban, says trick-or-treating ‘not recommended’
Less than a day after issuing new health guidelines that banned trick-or-treating and other Halloween activities, Los Angeles County public health officials walked back the decision Wednesday.
Citing an inability to maintain safe social distancing and the potential for gatherings beyond household members, county officials initially nixed trick-or-treating along with other Halloween traditions, including haunted houses and parades.
But Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer said Wednesday that the guidelines have been “slightly revised.”
Ferrer said the change distinguishes between activities originally prohibited under the health officer order from activities that are “not recommended.”
“This year, it’s just not safe to celebrate in the ways we usually do,” Ferrer said. “We are recommending that trick-or-treating not happen this year.”
The Department of Public Health previously said that because some of the traditional ways in which Halloween is celebrated do not allow contact with non-household members to be minimized, it is important to identify safer alternatives.
“Trunk-or-treat” events involving car-to-car candy dispersal, which are sometimes held by churches or schools, also are not recommended under the revised order.
