Guide Tip
What To Expect
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.

3.00It was a good experience and great people, learned a lot about the history of the area but just wasn’t what i expected. I thought we were gonna be able to go inside the houses and experience the hauntings for ourselves but it was just from the outside thats all. other then that it was a great lively area with so many historical things around.
