Fun, inexpensive evening.

Jason_B, Mar 2026
Actively participated in talking with ghosts using equipment provided by the tour guide. Was a fun and inexpensive event for my 13 year old daughter and I. Our tour guide, Tommy, was friendly and great. Can not recommend this enough.

" true ghost hunting experience" Thank you for another FIVE STAR REVIEW.

Great small group activity!

Taylor_D, Nov 2025
We had a great time! This activity gives a little history then lets you break out into small groups to do some ghost hunting. It was a great activity for me and my two friends, and way more engaging than a ghost tour alone would have been!

Talking with a soldier named Michael!

Kimberly_G, Nov 2025
Bundle up in November… it was chilly. My husband had activity on his EVP meter and his dousing rods went crazy. Our guide Kendra was very good. A medium with a lot of knowledge of the town and battle. A great experience !

Totally awesome!

Leanna_G, Nov 2025
Lovely couple that heads the tour and ghost hunting experience... fun, friendly, and knowledgeable people! Thanks guys we had a great time!

Great first time experience

Marilyn_V, Nov 2025
Tour guide was great at explaining how the equipment worked. She was fun to have and kept it interesting

It was fun to learn more...

Ann_S, Nov 2025
It was fun to learn more information about the war and the town. The tree information was fantastic. I Love the ghost equipment and that was so cool. Wish had more check in when we were trying to figure it out but it was a lot of folks there. We all helped each other out and I would recommend this tour. Different and fun 😊

Wonderful Tour

KRISTEN_M, Nov 2025
Guide Lindsey was excellent-good story telling and a lot of fun. She spent a lot of time with my son Noah helping him because he was particularly interested and this overall was a great activity for my husband's Halloween birthday

Ghosts!!

Desralee_K, Nov 2025
Cool experience and not tons of walking!! Lots of pics!! I suggest this tour! Free time to explore by yourself!

Halloween ghost adventures

Salina_C, Nov 2025
Marc was fantastic! He was hilarious and super informative. He took his time explaining all the significant locations we stopped at and kept things entertaining the whole way through. We got to use several different ghost-hunting tools, which was really cool. Even though we didn’t have any paranormal encounters, we still had an enjoyable experience ghost hunting. -TMNTs

Honestly this was a fine...

Caitlin_H, Oct 2025
Honestly this was a fine time! Would do it again, especially for the spirits! Tommy was an amazing and knowledgeable guide.

It will make you a believer.

Ernest_M, Oct 2025
Very good time, loved how you get to interact with the tour. While other ghost tours have you just walking around while listening to stories this tour has you actually using ghost hunting equipment!

Information and challenge

Richard_S, Oct 2025
I learned about making contact with and detecting ghosts. It was a bit of a challenge to make contact.

Was so cool not at all...

Joshua_S, Oct 2025
Was so cool not at all what I expected and I loved every second of it, got emotional when talking with the spirts, I recommend.

Fascinating

Tina_S, Oct 2025
Tommy was so well informed, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic. He intertwined history with the paranormal and created a fascinating experience.

Great tour

Dwayne_C, Oct 2025
Excellent tour. Loved our guide. He was very knowledgeable. Great information about the history of Gettysburg. Will book again next year

Fun for spooky season

Lauren_S, Oct 2025
We had a good time. Was hoping to be able to use more ghost hunting tools other than dousing rods but all in all was something fun to do during spooky season.

We had no idea what we...

Renee_D, Oct 2025
We had no idea what we were getting into, but it was honestly so much fun! Our guide was so entertaining and a great story teller. It was crazy that the tools actually seemed to work! Not scary at all, just a good time. We even ended up with an orb in the pictures. How cool!

Late night Ghost Hunt Tour

Patricia_M, Oct 2025
The late night ghost hunt tour was full of history and paranormal stories! Our guide was very knowledgeable and she not only had evidence from previous tours but had equipment for us to use and get our own evidence of the paranormal!

We spoke with a ghost...

DanaBrown, Oct 2025
We spoke with a ghost named Lieutenant Charles and he was rad. Energy readers used to locate ghost "hot spots" and then rods used for communicating. Made contact with 3 spirits, but spent most of the time with Lt. Charles.

40 minutes in and never...

John_C, Oct 2025
40 minutes in and never used "ghost hunting equipment" was told we would twice but never did. Boring history lesson so we skipped off to a bar.

Great tour guide

Karen_G, Oct 2025
Cheyenne was a great guide. She was very informative. This tour was different than other tours we have been on since we went to 3 different locations and it was great that we got to spread out instead of staying in one spot. The equipment was also good. We got a few good pictures and the ghosts were talking back

It was ok.

brittany_w, Oct 2025
My husband and I booked this tour as a date night away from the kids. Unfortunately the tour guides young daughter was also along for the ride. Nothing personal but the entire time she kept interrupting everyone on the investigation, inserting herself into what everyone was doing. I heard multiple people say she kept bothering them. I understand she is young and curious but I’d rather not have a young girl following me around the entire time I’m trying to have experiences. Not to mention, her mom ( the tour guide) made multiple comments about people stealing the rods and she has to pay for them out of pocket and if we steal she is not getting paid. There was one spirit box sitting out and as a seasoned investigator , I noticed the settings were not correct so I asked to use it and change the setting. As soon as I did the tour guides daughter ran over to the spirit box and turned it off. As if she heard me and was worried we would steal it. I did not get to enjoy this investigation due to limitations impeded onto me through the tour guide and her daughter.

Great tour!

Kelly_N, Oct 2025
Guides were informative and kept the tour upbeat on the way to the location. They were very friendly and kind, I 1000% recommend this tour for believers and skeptics.

First real ghost hunt

Joseph_K, Oct 2025
The guides were fun and knowledgeable., making the activity memorable and enjoyable. The equipment was fun to use.

Fun time and great experience

Tiffany_C, Sept 2025
It was a ton of fun. I'm neutral when it comes to the paranormal but it was an interesting experience and a great time. I also learned some new facts about Gettysburg that I hadn't heard before.
