Yes, Halloween will be like everything else currently. Those with uncontrollable fear will be hiding in their basements, and everyone else will be enjoying life as usual, with some obvious precautions.

Because some of us don't want you coming to our house as we are acting responsibly with COVID.

Or you can stop being a wet blanket and just put out a bowl, grab some wine and lawn chairs and sit far away from the bowl waiving at your neighbors.

Or, I can avoid COVID from your brats and not participate this year. We do that every year but the idea is kids come up to you for candy. So, if I'm in a lawn chair with candy kids will be coming close to me. If they are close to me, how many others are they close to and that's how it spreads. Enjoy your candy with a side of COVID and stop complaining why we cannot open schools.

You are ridiculous and have bad reading comprehension ‘sit far away from the bowl.’

Keep clutching your pearls and leering at people through your blinds. We will joyously galavant by with our ‘brats’ and advise them to steer clear of crazy pearly clutching lady.

You are cray cray, lock up in the basement and don’t come out until Nov 1!

Honestly, how much risky interaction do kids have with others on Halloween? Trick or treating is outside and kids can wear masks.

If governors can issue lockdowns and close churches, they can stop trick or treating. I don't think they will need to, but yes they can. Like pp said, it was canceled (yes, officially) for those of us in NJ after a freak early snowstorm created downed power lines and trees.

I don’t think governors would cancel trick or treating for covid. They will maybe release guidelines on how to do it safely.

NJ resident here. I think that Governor Murphy would certainly cancel trick-or-treating if needed. Sadly, a lot of "knuckleheads" would not celebrate Halloween safely. Therefore, canceling trick-or-treating would be the responsible and prudent thing to do. It's hopefully just this year. We can still celebrate Halloween with our families at home. Murphy's done an amazing job with COVID and I hope he continues to make the right decisions for our state.

Leave your front light off and don’t answer the door if someone rings the bell, fool. It’s easy to not participate.

Why do you feel the need to name call? I don't want my door bell rung by your brat who you refuse to teach responsibility to as you take none yourself.

I’ll let my kids go trick or treating. Outdoors, masks, it will be safe.

Halloween is on and will be celebrated in our household. Trick or Treaters are welcome and we will pass out candy.

I think it will be totally fine, but will involve leaving candy out in bowls rather than being handed out. It's outdoors, kids are masked and often gloved. Pretty easy holiday to make some accommodations.
