Gettysburg has more ghost tours per block than almost anywhere in America, and from the sidewalk they can look identical: a guide in period dress, a lantern, a walking loop of haunted addresses. The real differences are the route, what buildings you actually enter, price, and length. Here is every operator we track, with facts pulled from their own sites — and the date we last checked each one.

Check what you go inside. Most tours are outdoor walking loops. The ones tied to historic buildings (a tavern, an inn, a house museum) can include interior access — that’s the single biggest experience difference, and it’s stated on each operator’s page. We note it on each tour’s detail page where the operator states it.
October is its own season. Tours that run a few nights a week all summer often run nightly — and sell out — in October. If you’re coming for Halloween season, book ahead on the operator’s site rather than walking up.
Price differences are small; length differences aren’t. Most tours cluster within a few dollars of each other, but durations range meaningfully. A longer tour on tired kids’ legs is not a better tour.
