Gettysburg is often called the most haunted town in America, and it earned the title in the bloodiest battle ever fought on American soil — the fighting that left this small Pennsylvania town buried in its own dead. Ghost City Tours leads nightly walking tours from Lincoln Square through the streets where the battle spilled past the Jennie Wade and Tillie Pierce houses and into homes that have never stopped being haunted.

Our local guides tell the true, researched history behind each haunting — the soldiers, the townspeople caught in the crossfire, the parlors turned into field hospitals and places of death. Bring the family on the all-ages Haunted Echoes Ghost Tour, keep it to the adults with Blood on the Battlefield past the notorious Farnsworth House, gather for the Gettysburg Haunted Pub Crawl through the town's oldest taverns, or take up the tools yourself on the Gettysburg Ghost Hunt, a hands-on paranormal investigation inside one of the town's most haunted houses.

Ghost City Tours has been telling Gettysburg's darkest stories since 2022, walking these battle-scarred streets with the respect this ground demands. Book your Gettysburg ghost tour today and stand where the dead of the battle are said to still gather.

Why Is Gettysburg So Haunted?

Over three days in July 1863, more than 51,000 soldiers were killed, wounded, or went missing at Gettysburg. The scale of that violence left something behind that visitors, historians, and paranormal investigators have been trying to understand for over 160 years.

Why Gettysburg Matters to Ghost City Tours

Gettysburg is where Ghost City Tours began — not as a business, but as a conviction. Founder Tim Nealon grew up near the battlefield, spent thousands of hours on its ground, and built a company on the belief that these stories deserve to be told with research, respect, and truth.
