CANCELLED!

Unfortunately, due to many people cancelling leaving the trip only 50% reserved, we have no other choice but to cancel the Trip.

We here at Haunted Hamilton are very sad to announce this, especially after all the hardwork and planning went into this event, and the excitement of those planning on attending. This would have been a once-in-a-lifetime trip with everything that was included at the amazing price and is unfortunate that it has to be cancelled.
Maybe next year we'll plan a trip that is more Canadian-bound.

Ghosts of Gettysburg Candlelit Walking Tour of Baltimore Street
www.ghostsofgettysburg.com

Of all the forlorn, countless souls awash in time, none reach out to us more than those of the dead at Gettysburg. They were young men, mostly, with hopes for a bright future and moved by sincere patriotic dreams, caught up and cruelly thrown down again, in the great, hot whirl of mortal combat. Their presence on earth was silenced forever by death. Or maybe not . . . What awaits you in Gettysburg?

Baltimore Street Tours where you will see the house where the only civilian killed in the battle met her fate - and where psychics say her father still mourns her. The National Cemetery, where some of the heroes buried there still walk . . . and the Gatehouse in the National Cemetery where an invisible entity descends the stairs and non-existent babies from a long-gone orphanage still cry out. The house between Union and Confederate lines that Abraham Lincoln rode past to deliver the Gettysburg Address, where both Union and Confederate apparitions materialize to frighten unwary occupants.
