Chris as Rosa Carmichael

Chris was awesome! Her portrayal of Rosa Carmichael was great! She told the story of the orphanage from Rosa's point of view a did great. Also, she nicknamed me "stick boy" and I was her official thug for the night. She interacts with everyone very well. My daughter loved it!

A Must Do

Even through the mist and fog, which we thought practically added to the experience, it was thoroughly enjoyable. Amy was a wonderful and interesting tour guide. Her knowledge and enthusiasm for the paranormal made her stories come to life. We would recommend not missing this tour on you trip to Gettysburg. It also seems like this tour company (Ghost Tours) is the one to use for their other tours as well.

Blood on the Battlefield Ages 16+

Kristy_A, Nov 2025

Truth is scarier than fiction.

Blood on the Battlefield Ghost Tour is the perfect experience for someone who wants history and facts with a side of spookiness and ghosts. Our tour guide, Dustin (who was fantastic and engaging!) described this as 70% history, 30% ghost stories, and that is a great elevator ride description. But what makes this tour so spooky (aside from being later at night, which was part of the fun) is that reality is a lot scarier than fiction. The stories are seeped in truth and horror. Will you be frightened? Maybe, but not necessarily by the paranormal (our tour did look for some activity!) but by the violent side of human nature and the horrors of the battle. This tour also benefits from being adults only, which allows the tour guide to not censor or white wash the stories being told. The walking isn't a whole heck of a lot but you are standing for much of the 90 minutes, so those who are mobility challenged or cannot stand for long periods of time might not be able to go on this tour.

Civil War Civilian Ghost Tour

Our guide, Aurora, was very knowledgeable and thorough. The tour touched on the impact of the war on the civilians living in Gettysburg. This was her first year doing this tour and she did a fantastic job. I would highly recommend this tour for families looking to learn more about the hardships and danger civilians faced during the battle.
