About this activity

Join us for a spine-tingling night of paranormal exploration at one of Gettysburg’s most haunted sites. Jennie Wade, the only civilian killed during the Battle of Gettysburg, has become a symbol of the town’s tragic past—and her birthplace, just steps from the Shriver Museum and Tillie Pierce House, stood in the path of chaos during those bloody July days.

On this immersive ghost hunt, you’ll:

-Work side-by-side with seasoned paranormal investigators using cutting-edge ghost hunting equipment—EMF detectors, spirit boxes, REM pods, dowsing rods, and more.

-Participate in EVP and flashlight communication sessions in real time.

-Enjoy intimate group sizes that allow for a focused and personalized experience.

Whether you're a true believer or a curious skeptic, the Jennie Wade Birthplace Ghost Hunt offers a thrilling blend of history and mystery you won’t find anywhere else in Gettysburg.

History haunts these walls—are you brave enough to listen?
