A Real Gettysburg
Ghost or a trick of Shadow and light? Ghost
photo from Paul Rose.
Over the years since the battle, stories of
scores of sightings, stranger than reality,
have emerged from the quaint houses and gentle
fields in and around the town of Gettysburg:
Stories of sightings of these soldiers, moving
again in battle lines, across the fields where
they once marched. . . and died; tales of visions
through a rip in time into the horrible scene
of a Civil War hospital; whispers of a look
at men long dead held eternally captive by duty.
These apparitions -and more- come back to remind
us, in one way or another that they are not
to be forgotten for what they did here. . .
In 1994, Mark started the first ghost walk in
Gettysburg, The
Ghosts of Gettysburg Candlelight Walking Tours®.
Armed with tales from his ghost books - and
with a few that aren't in the books -guides
dressed in period attire take visitors on evening
tours through sections of town that were bloody
battlefields 13 decades ago; through night-darkened
streets to houses and buildings where it's not
as quiet as it should be; to sites on the old
Pennsylvania College campus where the slain
once lay in rows, and the wounded suffered horribly,
waiting to become corpses themselves; to cemeteries
where the dead lie. . . sometimes not so peacefully.
Gettysburg may very well be, acre for acre,
the most haunted place in America.
