Significant loss always has an impact on the neighborhood.
The Battle of Gettysburg resulted in casualties of over 50,000 people. The number of deaths during those three days was the highest during the entire battle. Killing spilled out into the streets and among the homes. That truth weighed heavily on all sides, and the eventual price was irrelevant to concepts of North or South or right or wrong.
This evening, the incredible and horrifying conflict that tore through this region and altered the course of the war dominates practically all of our ghost stories and hauntings. They have a basis in reality, and I can guarantee you that every word you hear tonight—however horrifying, tragic, or unbelievable—does in fact come from the area's past.
Even while not every tale is frightful, what you hear on our tour should give you an idea of how destructive and significant the Battle of Gettysburg actually was, as well as how crucial it is to comprehend the historical truth of the region.

My husband and I had a hauntingly great time with Remy as our tour guide last night! She made the experience feel personalized and shared so many unique stories. The town came to life as she described the historical events and shared what the lives of the people in the town were like. We can't wait to spend time in Gettysburg in the future and stay at one of the haunted locations we learned about!! Thank you Remy!

The tour was wonderful. Amber, our tour guide was very informative. She had great banter with the group, very good story teller and able to weave humor throughout important events. I appreciated how she took time to show us the witness tree and explain and even show us a picture. We enjoyed her stories she chose to share. The walk was easy for anyone to complete. Good pricing for the length of the tour which was over an hour. Highly recommend! 5/5
