What makes Civil War Ghosts of Gettysburg Tour by US Ghost Adventures a unique experience ?
The Brickhouse Inn, formerly the Old Welty House, played a pivotal role during the Battle of Gettysburg, serving as a vantage point for Confederate sharpshooters who occupied its second floor and attic. Today, the lingering spirits of these soldiers are said to haunt the inn, their presence a chilling reminder of the fierce conflict that once raged there.
The Witness Tree along Baltimore Street in Gettysburg stands as a silent sentinel to the brutal fighting that occurred during the Battle of Gettysburg. This ancient tree, present during the bloodshed, is believed to hold the echoes of those fateful days, with some claiming to hear whispers of the past in its rustling leaves.
The Farnsworth House in Gettysburg, a key site during the battle where Confederate snipers took position, is now notorious as one of the city’s most haunted locations. Visitors report eerie encounters and ghostly sensations, believed to be linked to the intense combat that once raged within its walls.
The National Soldiers Orphanage Homestead in Gettysburg, once plagued by the harsh and abusive matron of the 1870s, now harbors the restless spirits of the mistreated children. Ghostly apparitions and eerie sounds still echo through the building, a haunting reminder of the dark history endured by its young residents.
East Cemetery Hill in Gettysburg was the site of some of the fiercest fighting during the battle, and it remains a poignant memorial to the struggle that occurred here. Visitors often report seeing shadowy figures resembling soldiers emerging from the cemetery after dark, as if the echoes of the past are still fighting their way through the night.
The Hall of Presidents Museum in Gettysburg once showcased wax figures of every U.S. president and their wives, but beneath this display lies a darker history. Before it became a museum, this site served as a makeshift burial ground during the Civil War, and some believe that the restless spirits of those interred here still linger in the shadows.
The Jennie Wade House in Gettysburg is forever marked by tragedy, as a Confederate sniper’s stray bullet fatally struck Jennie Wade while she was sheltering inside. Today, eerie occurrences and ghostly presences are reported in the home, reflecting the lingering anguish of that fateful day.
The Rupp House in Gettysburg became a battleground during the fight, with John Rupp taking refuge in the basement as chaos erupted upstairs. Today, visitors report unsettling paranormal phenomena, including ghostly apparitions of those who met their end within these walls.
