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.

I believe this tour company is new to town. I come almost every year and love the ghost walks even though alot of the stories are repeats. Its just always a fun thing to do. We decided to try this place out on this trip and we were not disappointed. We had the tour guide who went by Major Finn. He did such a great job. I think he is probably one of, if not my favorite tours. They are all different. But he did a great job with a good balance of history with his stories. He was also captivating in his story telling. I promise that. I had two tween girls and he never lost their attention. I would definitely recommend this tour and I hope your lucky enough to get Major Finn. Thank you for a great experience!

Wonderful experience! So much more than a ghost tour with historical facts interspersed! Ally was our guide. She was full of enthusiasm and a lot of fun!! Much information about the civilians of Gettysburg and their experiences during the battle.

A bit of walking but definitely worth it to hear the “spooky” but captivating history behind Gettysburg. Major Finn did awesome explaining the events that occurred in that town and made the trip super fun.

Even through the mist and fog, which we thought practically added to the experience, it was thoroughly enjoyable. Amy was a wonderful and interesting tour guide. Her knowledge and enthusiasm for the paranormal made her stories come to life. We would recommend not missing this tour on you trip to Gettysburg. It also seems like this tour company (Ghost Tours) is the one to use for their other tours as well.

Our Tour guide was amazing, knowledgeable and very friendly. It was so cold too and still didn’t skip anything. I would definitely go again just when it’s warmer. My Daugher caught a few orbs on video too!

Major Finn was knowledgeable and funny. A perfect mix of history and spook! I learned a lot while getting to see so many key locations.

I went on this tour with my Mom on a cold January Saturday night and it was fantastic. Major Finn is a Gettysburg and Civil War aficionado armed with witty jokes and a theatrical presence that would rival the best Broadway actors. The lantern of safety guided us through a rather entertaining 1.5 hours. I highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in ghosts and Gettysburg history.
