Ghost City Tours is by far the best Gettysburg ghost tour operator in town. We had an over 90-minute tour with Major Finn, who was an absolutely phenomenal guide and historian of all things Gettysburg. With his "lantern of safety" he gave us a unique and entertaining walking tour, sharing intriguing facts about the battle and haunted encounters throughout the town (and even some of his own personal accounts)! You would be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't come to Gettysburg and take Major Finn's lively tour of the dead! Plus, it was great for all ages.

Full description

Echoes of War is the premiere ghost tour in Gettysburg. We’ll bring you into the heart of the town that was nearly decimated by the Civil War and show you some of the most haunted locations the city has to offer. 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 of what came before and what came after during one of America’s darkest chapters that families of all ages can learn and appreciate.
