Overview
Walk the very streets where soldiers took their final breaths. Where blood was shed not just on the battlefield, but between alleyways, behind homes, and right in the heart of town. As the Union retreat thundered through Gettysburg, chaos unfolded around every corner, and many of the buildings still standing today bore witness to the horror.
On this spirited journey, you’ll explore some of Gettysburg’s most historic pubs and taverns - many of which played significant roles during and after the battle. Some served as field hospitals. Others as meeting spots for weary troops. And nearly all are believed to still echo with the souls of those who never left.
Enjoy your favorite drink as your 5-star-rated guide shares chilling tales of haunted history, personal accounts, and local lore tied to each location. You’ll enjoy your own spirits… while hearing about theirs.
Cheers... if you dare!

Hop on your own...save money
HeatherM_F, Sept 2025
Not worth the money, save yourself $40 a piece, go do to the diamond and bar hop on your own. Lost members of our group after stop # 2. No history about buildings, nothing.
Fun night!

Fun and informative. Every person I interacted with, Evie at front desk, and are wonderful tour guide and her sidekick Austin we're gracious, funny and well versed in Gettysburg history. The team was interactive, I felt like I was a valued guest as we did the easy walk of haunted Gettysburg and explored their pubs. Tour guide Luna was helpful in making recommendations at each of our stop, she was uniquely funny, handled the crowd well and the two hours just seem to fly by. Highly recommend this excursion, you'll have a great time too.

20 minutesDavid Wills House
The David Wills House, located on Lincoln Square in Gettysburg, is famously where President Abraham Lincoln stayed the night before delivering the Gettysburg Address. The house served as a hub for the aftermath of the Battle of Gettysburg, with wounded soldiers brought through and bodies temporarily stored nearby.
20 minutesThe Union Hotel, located just a short distance from the Gettysburg battlefield, has a long and storied past - one that seems to have left spiritual echoes behind. Originally built in the early 1800s, the hotel reportedly served as both a makeshift hospital and gathering point during and after the Battle of Gettysburg.
20 minutesThe building here was the very heart of one of America’s bloodiest battlefields. It dates back to the 19th century, and the surrounding block saw intense fighting, death, and chaos during the three-day Battle of Gettysburg in July 1863.
