Help Identifying Oak Leaf Holly Growth

Hi, My Oak Leaf Hollies are covered with something that I can’t identify. See pic. Additionally, my new growth leaves are turning black and dying. Related? Someone said it’s residual material from the new growth. Someone else said it’s caused by Bacterial Blight. And yet another person said it’s new growth that was killed by an overnight frost. Can you tell me what is really happening?
