Nearly every building still standing on this tour still vibrates from the AFTERMATH.

Great Family Experience - We chose this to go with our kids (ages 10, 13) and they really liked it. Ken, our guide, got both the kids and parents involved, and told very interesting stories. It's a little spooky, at times, but really good for a family night out.

Family Ghost Tour - This was a GREAT family friendly ghost tour! Ken was our guide and he was a great story teller. He gave our 8 and 9 year olds enough of a story to keep them intrigued and not too scared. Will plan to do this again on our next trip to Gettysburg.

We had fun with our granddaughter - Our tour guide was a charming young man who let the group keep up with him and spoke loudly and clearly for our hearing. There were interesting and fun stories; we wish there had been more ghost stories though. But our 13 year old granddaughter took a picture of Jeremy's house and back at the car, she could see a ghost in her picture! That is what we're posting here, do you see her ghost? I think Jeremy followed us to our camper because someone turned on the fan during the night and it wasn't us? LOL!

Ken, our tour guide was amazing! - Ken was our tour guide and he was amazing! We’ve been on several ghost tours in Gettysburg over the years and he was the best. His knowledge about the battle was invaluable. I learned a lot.

Great family fun! - We thoroughly enjoyed our night on our ghost tour! It was alot of neat history about the old buildings and stories of the past. It was intriguing and a great way to end our Gettysburg trip! We were also told about TV shows that feature the houses we were passing...so we went home and watched those as well! Don't go expecting to see a ghost...but to hear the stories of hauntings in the town.

Dillon was engaging with... - Dillon was engaging with the stories at his disposal. We had a 10 year old with us and he would have loved some more spooky stories. Altogether an enjoyable time.

Ghost tour gettysburg - Something should be done about the cars cruising down Baltimore St. revving their engines while the tour guide is speaking. Gettysburg should be cracking down on this since they profit from the tourists, It was very distracting g for the tour guide and the tourists
