Worcester Residents Make Plans After Trick-Or-Treating Ban

Some Worcester residents are still planning to have fun as coronavirus diminishes Halloween.

WORCESTER, MA — Ghouls, goblins, pumpkins are putting people in Worcester the Halloween spirit. But what many consider the best part of Halloween, trick-or-treating, won’t happen in the city.

"I’m kind of sad about it because Halloween is really fun how kids get to go out, ring the doorbells, get candy, and have fun," said 11-year-old Connor Griffin.

The city is asking people not to trick-or-treat door-to-door because of the coronavirus risk. Worcester has been declared a red zone city.
