Kendra was fantastic! I’m a history person so to hear the story behind our location which could help with the hunt. Kendra was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. I enjoyed sharing stories with her and getting in the spirit of a hunt. It was fun using an EMF also, I’ve never used one. If you do get to hang out with Kendra, think about what she says. I have a feeling she’s a secret sensitive. We shared a photo from a previous hunt and she explained things that she could never have known. Blew my mind!!
Got to speak with Marc afterwards also and just the enjoyable conversations and genuine interest is the best thing ever!

Marc was ver knowledgeable about the history of the sites visited. Some of the urban legends did seem a little too stretchy.. but still interesting. Best part was the ghost hunting, where we got to use dowsing rods, EMF, night vision and a voice box to communicate with ghosts just outside one of the battlefield sites. Contact was made and have the video and audio to prove it! Quite memorable.. and freaky all at once.

I had the best experience with Marc! He was amazing! So knowledgeable about Gettysburg as well as the paranormal. Getting to use investigative equipment was so cool. Got a few hits with the spirit box and the dowsing rods. Will do again!!

Marc was excellent! We had a lot of fun getting to know the history behind the huntings. We had to leave the group early due to early morning commitments but still enjoyed the experience.

Marc was our guide and he was highly intelligent in all the history in Gettysburg! He was able to answer any questions and was super helpful when it came to the dosing rods. We got a few spirits able to talk to us and it was an experience I won't forget. Highly recommend this tour!
Response from Host, Nov 2023
"Highly recommend this tour!" Thank you for another FIVE STAR REVIEW.

The story telling part was ok, but I thought we’d be using better equipment, and working an area other than some side street near the school. I wouldn’t do this again.
Response from Host, Nov 2023
We're sorry you didn't feel your experience merited our usual FIVE STAR REVIEW.
Stefan_H, Nov 2023
Great tour with Marc! I’m not a big believer in the paranormal but the dowsing rod experiment was pretty cool. Loved the stories and history involved with each spot. Marc was very entertaining and knowledgeable, I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Gettysburg believer or not.
