    This family-friendly tour explores haunted sites in Gettysburg and shares stories of the Civil War's impact on the town's residents, lasting about 90 minutes.

    We booked the 8pm ghost tour, designed for families, just a day in advance. Initially unsure about the experience, our adult group, which had no children, ended up thoroughly enjoying it. Allie, our guide, was exceptional, maintaining high energy and engaging storytelling throughout the nearly two-hour tour. Although the group was somewhat large at 25 participants, Allie handled it efficiently. The presence of pre-teens and teenagers added a fun dynamic to the experience. However, I would recommend that those with children under 12 consider waiting, as the stories, despite being tailored for the audience, could be too intense for younger kids.Ashley W

    Two hours of guided ghost hunting at the Welty House — use provided equipment to investigate reports of supernatural activity in a historic setting tied to the Battle of Gettysburg.

    The tour was enjoyable and involved exploring two locations in the basement using equipment. At the first site, we had some intriguing readings on an EMF detector, and at the second site, a bell rang. While we were uncertain about using dowsing rods, it was still entertaining. Our guide was friendly and very knowledgeable, making our experience even better. We appreciated our time on this tour.H3278QRjamiew
