What you'll see and do
Caught in the crossfire of the Battle of Gettysburg, the Welty House was riddled with bullets as soldiers fought just outside its walls. Guests and staff have reported eerie whispers, shadowy figures, and doors opening on their own. Some believe the spirits of wounded soldiers still seek refuge, unaware the war has long since ended.
15 minutes here
Named after Union hero Patrick O’Rorke, this lively pub sits on hallowed ground soaked in history—and, some say, lingering spirits. Patrons have witnessed glasses moving on their own and felt sudden cold spots with no explanation. Whether it’s soldiers from the past or O’Rorke himself, something unseen seems to enjoy the atmosphere.
15 minutes here
The only civilian killed during the Battle of Gettysburg, Jennie Wade met her tragic fate when a stray bullet struck her while she was baking bread. Visitors report the scent of freshly baked bread filling the air with no source, along with ghostly whispers and faint knocks on the walls. Some say Jennie’s spirit remains, forever tied to the house where she lost her life.
15 minutes here
This location serves as a gateway to some of Gettysburg’s most haunted sites, where spirits are said to follow guests from one building to the next. Paranormal investigators have captured strange voices, shadowy apparitions, and unexplained footsteps. The air is thick with history—and the eerie presence of those unwilling to leave.
15 minutes here
Built in 1776, this tavern once served as a secret stop on the Underground Railroad and later as a Civil War hospital. Reports of phantom footsteps, disembodied voices, and flickering candlelight suggest spirits still roam its halls. Some believe the cries of wounded soldiers can still be heard in the basement, where many took their last breath.
15 minutes here
This solemn monument honors the brave soldiers who fought in the battle, but some believe their spirits remain tethered to the land. Witnesses have reported shadowy figures appearing near the monument at dusk, only to vanish into thin air. A few claim to have heard hushed voices, as if ghostly soldiers still strategize for a battle that ended long ago.
15 minutes here
Dedicated to baseball legend Eddie Plank, this pub celebrates history in more ways than one. Staff and visitors have noticed flickering lights, objects moving on their own, and an eerie feeling of being watched. Some say the ghost of a soldier lingers here, drawn to the energy of the lively establishment.
15 minutes here
This modern brewery sits on historic land, and some say the past refuses to stay buried. Patrons have reported sudden cold chills, whispers in empty rooms, and the sensation of unseen hands brushing against them. Whether it’s soldiers still lingering from the battle or restless spirits drawn to the energy of the crowds, one thing is certain—history never truly fades in Gettysburg.

Not. Haunted Crawl
It did not take us to haunted pubs nor did we speak about any haunting but one. There was history of the town provided but it was not a ghost tour like I imagined. Moreover we only stopped at two pubs one was modern and the other was so packed we could not all attend at one time.

Mia was a great guide, she was very informative and told great stories. The champagne was great at the beginning of the tour!

Not as fun as it sounded!
Wasn’t what I expected. The “boos” and “booze” aspects were not well connected. We learned a lot of history and a few stories about the ghosts said to be at certain places for sure, but then we would go to some random bar with no connection to ghosts, and we ordered our own drinks with no connection to the history or ghosts (no recommendations - just go ahead and order a drink!). I think connecting it all with fun bars with stories or fun ghost related drink suggestions would have made this a much better experience.

More historical than spooky
Not what I expected or hoped for. Guide was pleasant and very knowledgeable about Civil War. But stories were more factual rather than “ghost stories”.i also had imagined more of a tavern style or historical site for the “booze” of “Boos and “Booze”.

It’s a walking tour. You...
It’s a walking tour. You don’t actually go in buildings but still very informative. Learned some new things

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Civil War Ghosts Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Gettysburg.
How much does Civil War Ghosts Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl cost?
+
Prices start at $29 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Gettysburg usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Civil War Ghosts Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Gettysburg is not rushed.
Is Civil War Ghosts Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 81 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Gettysburg, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Civil War Ghosts Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Civil War Ghosts Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Civil War Ghosts Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl?
+
Around 28 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Gettysburg can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Gettysburg and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Civil War Ghosts Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Gettysburg within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Gettysburg?
+
Gettysburg is a guide town: licensed battlefield guides in your own car, bus and horseback battlefield tours, ghost lantern walks and museum entries covering the three-day battle. On Outty we rank every Gettysburg experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 2-Hour Gettysburg Battlefield Guided History Bus Tour with a National Park Guide, Spirits of Jennie Wade Ghost Night Tour in Gettysburg, Echoes of War All Ages Ghost Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Gettysburg?
+
April to June and September to October. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Gettysburg?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
