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.

    Richard, our tour guide, was awesome! I go to Gettysburg at least once a year. I thought I knew almost everything, but he proved me wrong! He had so much information and delivered it amazingly!

    It was a very informative historical tour . Definitely more geared towards the history buff . I didnt see the need of the emf detectors. But it was a cool experience . Slightly over priced . Our tour guide Richard was great. He kept it informative and interesting.

  • Great historical ghost tour.

    My husband I were quite disappointed in this tour. Our guide gave us information that was incorrect and should take time to research more thoroughly. The tour overall was unprofessional.

    Silver is an amazing tour guide and the real deal, as are the amazing ghosts my friend Jennifer and I met. Laugh all you want and feel free to disbelieve me and then book this tour yourself. You’ll also learn some very intimate historical details. And if you want souvenirs, they have some very cool stuff to buy; the skeleton mug is totally worth its price.

    Richard was our tour guide, and he was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and added just the right touch of humor to make the experience even more enjoyable. My husband and I are already looking forward to planning another trip to Gettysburg and would love to take another tour with Richard.
