Ghosts of Gettysburg Ultimate Dead of Night Haunted Ghost Tour in Gettysburg

Gettysburg , Pennsylvania

★ ★ ★ ★ ☆ (129 reviews)
Free Cancellation

From $ 30.00

Duration: 1 hours (approx.)

Significant loss always has an impact on the neighborhood. The Battle of Gettysburg resulted in casualties of over 50,000 people. The number of deaths during those three days was the highest during the entire battle. Killing spilled out into the streets and among the homes. That truth weighed heavily on all sides, and the eventual price was irrelevant to concepts of North or South or right or wrong. This evening, the incredible and horrifying conflict that tore through this region and altered the course of the war dominates practically all of our ghost stories and hauntings. They have a basis in reality, and I can guarantee you that every word you hear tonight—however horrifying, tragic, or unbelievable—does in fact come from the area's past. Even while not every tale is frightful, what you hear on our tour should give you an idea of how destructive and significant the Battle of Gettysburg actually was, as well as how crucial it is to comprehend the historical truth of the region.
