Hello!

This is Maggie from the 9 to 11 ghost hunt on July 8th. I am sending some pictures that I thought were notable from the ghost hunt. I think I might have a picture of a faint apparition in the first photo (in the center of the photo to the right of the bushes), but any and all of your opinions would be wonderful! I have what I believe to be several orb photos, although some photos also contain bits of dust. I will send my husband’s pictures later this week.

Thank you so much for offering such an event for people! I have wanted to experience spirits one-on-one and I finally got my chance! I will always remember this experience!

Thank you again!

Maggie Schilb-Davis

Happy Customers :)

Hi, On March 31, 2010 my fiancé and I went on our very first ghost hunt and I have to say it was GREAT!!! Here are a few interesting pictures Itook. We visited the Sachs Bridge and a haunted Civil War house on Baltimore Street. There are two favorite photos that I personally found to be intriging. The first photo is IMG 2128, this picture shows a pink orb. This orb appeared immediately after Chris mentioned the hanging of the three Confederate soldiers. The second photo is IMG2151, this picture shows three green orbs manifesting and if you look closely to the left side of the door above the doorknob there is a white mist and you can faintly see an image of a face and eyes staring back. At first I thought the image was outside looking in but the mist is actually inside of the house near the door. This is by far the bestpicture I took during my trip. Thanks again for the wonderful hunt!!!

Hi Spooky,
I just wanted to take a moment to thank you, Patrick & Sarah for our Ghost Hunt on March 17th. It was an incredible experience. What some of our group thought was going to be a “Halloween fun house”, turned in to a credible and professional investigation. In fact, the most skeptical of our group spent about an hour communicating with someone via the EMF meter. We had a fantastic time and I do believe you and your team changed some minds in our group regarding the paranormal. Thank you again for a wonderful experience. If we are ever in the area again, I guarantee we will be back in touch with you!

We are Tom and Terrie from Ohio. We were in Gettysburg the First week in July…. July 5-9th. We attended Two of your Midnight Ghost investigations, and we also took a few ghost walks. We have never had so much excitement. We bought a lot of new equipment from you guys too. We do a lot of investigating on our own.. in our own home and occasionally on request others. We Love our New Mel meter !! We actually used it as we were leaving town and stopped at Cashtown Inn to have lunch and Oh My God! The whole time we ate… it jumped from 0.00 to 7.0 ! and down to 4.0 It was unbelievable. I didn’t want to leave the area!! We also bought one of those Shadow detectors…( can’t remember the technical name of it )) It’s awesome… and I bought my own new dosing rods.. that work so great! And my new pendulum!! Thanks for having all this great equipment available to buy at your store as well as the Fantastic adventure you took us on that we will NEVER forget. I beg Tom everyday that we must start planning our return trip to go on more ghost hunts.
I swear , that was the Highlight of Our entire trip. both Nights that we went out… We had activity…
The most activity we experienced was just down the street at the General House just down the street from your business…. No… the big bathtub didn’t move for us… but my K2 Meter and every kind of meter in there was going crazy for quite a while … the entire room … both ends of the room…. That is until Patrick walked out of the House for a minute… then BAM! Everything went silent… What excitement!
We got to go to that house twice… and to the covered bridge and to the Farm… the barn….. Just awesome.
It was so funny…. We went the one night… and had so much fun… that My husband knew that I just hadn’t had my fill…. so on our last night there in Gettysburg… he bought another set of tickets for another midnight tour with you guys to go again… He knew I wouldn’t be happy if I didn’t get to go again. Thank You for making our Vacation One that we will never forget!!

Spooky,

Gary,Brian and myself just wanted to thank you and Capt Chris for a most enjoyable night at the Fairfield Inn,it was far more then what we expected and we would like to thank both of you for your kindness to Brian,we hope to see you soon and take another tour.
HAPPY HUNTING
Corrine,Gary and Brian

Spooky!
How are you? Hope all is well in Gettysburg. Not sure if my friends and I expressed this enough while we were in Gettysburg, but I just want to thank you again for everything. Without your tours/hunts our Gettysburg mini-vacation would have not even compared to the fun we had with you, Patrick, and everyone else.
I told a bunch of my friends about the fun and experiences we had with GPA and a lot of them are very interested and excited to participate themselves… we are even discussing coming back in April. Are you going to have a over-night hunt in April?

Thank you again!

Really enjoyed the Haunted House Ghost Expedition on 2/13/10 the 9:00PM-4:00AM with you and Patrick and other investigator and of course becoming a member
of the Gettysburg Paranormal Association.
Took about 50 photos through out the house,remember the experiment with the pregnant lady when you had her sit in the middle of the wall on the floor and you tried to make
somthing happen,well one photograph as she was sitting on the floor with her left arm stretched ,will I have a small white orb under her left hand,plus have 3-5 photographs
of you with the the flashlight coming off and on in the 3rd floor attic,that was really cool. Well give you pictures if you want of that.
The hunt was great and the opening of the cabinet in the kitchen when Patrick and I heard and He investgated and found where the noises where coming from and of
course having breakfast with you with my family,we all had great time.
Told you I will be up on March 4 th,2010 which is Thursday,you do have a Ghost Hunt schuduled for that night 9:00 PM-12:00 AM or what you have that night,
just put down Skip.Kathy,Kat Burgmann and let me know what is that night and will see you that day.
Good luck to you on the Ghost Hunt at the Fairfield Inn,sorry to miss it,but cant get there.,but tell Patrick I say HI.

Overnight Ghost Hunt …Lots Of Activity …Lots Of Fun!

I wish to thank all our guests who participated in our last two overnight ghost hunts. You all helped to make it a huge success! I personally had a blast! We were treated to a host of amazing paranormal activity!!!! The first overnight ghost hunt took place on January 30, 2010. I would have to say that the old 1920′s typewriter stole the show! Much to our amazement this typewriter actually appeared in the basement crawl space out of no where!!! A full report will be posted on our findings page later this week. The second overnight ghost hunt took place on February 13, 2010. I am still in shock over what transpired during this investigation! One of our guests captured a shirt “floating” in the Civil War basement. A closer, more in~depth look revealed that no “warm” body was in that shirt…if ya know what I mean!! While in the attic one of the k2 meters spiked up to red. After moving it around a bit we noticed that it had “froze” on red. So, we removed the quarter used to activate the k2. The quarter was FREEZING COLD!!! After the quarter was removed the k2 meter began dripping freezing cold water!!! This was a brand new, just out of the box k2 meter that just moments before was as dry as a desert!!! In addition, in the basement two guests were in the crawl space when all of a sudden the door closes them in!!! No worrires…they got out safe and sound!!! The last hour the spice rack door in the kitchen opened all on it’s own and the spices were moved. Once again, a full report on the investigation will be posted over this next week. Great job team!! You rock Please feel free to share your experiences as well here.
