Echoes of War is the premiere ghost tour in Gettysburg. We’ll bring you into the heart of the town that the Civil War nearly decimated and show you some of the city's most haunted locations. For the spirits of the soldiers who died on the very streets of Gettysburg, the war hasn't ended.
You’ll also learn about the citizens who watched in horror as the Battle of Gettysburg raged outside their windows and the aftermath of them having to pick up the pieces of their scarred and ruined city.
Echoes of War is a bittersweet look at what came before and what came after during one of America’s darkest chapters that families of all ages can learn and appreciate.

Our friends who live in Katoomba took us here on a Monday night. It was quite busy and all the tables by the windows were full. However we could still see the marvellous view of the Blue Mountains. Initially service was slow until we got Aiden to take our order . Seamus the other waiter proved to be delightful. The food was superb .

It was a truly wonderful experience going on this tour with our fantastic tour guide Allison Renne! So full of history, and such haunting ghost stories! We actually saw a ghost train, which is WILD!

Allison was an energetic, and very intelligent which kept the ghost tour family friendly (we had our 10 and 8 year old with us.) Her knowledge and passion for visitors to understand the full history of the battle and also of the townspeople and what they went through, was really intriguing. I’ve been a civil war and Gettysburg buff for a long time, but I learned so many details about the townspeople, and the buildings in town, that now, I have a greater picture of the conflict as a whole. I would recommend any Ghost City Tours, but I wouldn’t miss that chance to be lead by Allison!!

Major Finn was a major hit! He was a great blend of knowledge and humor. We have been on several tours in Gettysburg and Major Finn showed us some places that we haven’t seen before. Thank you for a great experience!

Best ghost tour I have ever been on and I have been on many in Gettysburg and elsewhere. Allie was fantastic. She was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and you could tell that she really loved what she was doing. Very informative and nicely blended history with ghostly tales. My 8 year old daughter also enjoyed it and didn’t find it too scary. I would highly recommend this tour.

The best ghost tour we have ever been on and we have been on a lot of ghost tours around the east coast! Allie was absolutely amazing. Loved every minute of it. My 13 year old son said this was his favorite one as well.

General Finn made the tour interesting and fun. Despite having taken these tours before, we had never before learned about John Burns!

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with "Major Finn". ( Hope I got the name right.) He was friendly, entertaining and knowledgeable. "LANTERN OF SAFETY"
