The hauntings of Gettysburg stretch far and wide, telling the story of a vast history. However, there are two spots that are frequently visited for their paranormal activity, and are known to house consistent, named spirits. The first is the Jennie Wade House, where the only civilian killed in Gettysburg, Jennie Wade, was shot while baking bread for soldiers. The other, which lies across the street, is the National Soldier's Orphans' Homestead, where disturbing stories of abuse towards children originated. Listen to hear the history of these locations, as well as what happened while investigating these spaces.

The Farnsworth House stood amongst The Battle of Gettysburg in 1863. The attic was a Confederate stronghold, the dining room a makeshift hospital. The home's owner, Harvey Sweeny, along with other Gettysburg residents, were in the cellar, listening in horror as war raged on around them. Today, the Farnsworth House is a bed and breakfast, and it is the center of many haunting tales. We'll be spending the night in the Sara Black Room, the most popular guest room, known for its frequent paranormal activity.
