      Don't Miss out on this tour
      I can't say enough positive things about this tour and especially our guide Clinton! He was knowledgeable, professional and respectful to the land and the spirits. He had all the ghost hunting gear that you could possibly hope to use. We had some very interesting experiences. Clinton took time tell us about the history of the land we were investigating on and about some things he personally witnessed. Don't miss this tour!

      Caught good evidence on our SLS camera
      Cheyenne was an amazing guide! Very knowledgeable. I highly recommend you ask that she be your guide. She brought a lot of equipment which added to the experience

      We Had a Great Time! :)
      We had Cheyanne (hope I spelled that right :) ) as our guide and had a great time! She explained all the equipment well and gave us plenty of info on the two bridges we visited and certain activity/spirits to look out for. Unfortunately, we didn't experience too much activity, but were talking the whole way home about the few things we did hear/see... :) And we had plenty of fun learning how to conduct our own investigations!

      Night ghost tour
      We did the midnight tour with Cheyanne, she was energetic and very enthusiastic. She truly knew the area and history. It was definitely a great experience that we would do again!!

      Amazing Paranormal Investigation
      Had a GREAT time! I’m a Paranormal Investigator from the west coast, and loved this Ghost hunt with Cheyenne. She was funny, personable and extremely experienced. I learned so much from her as well. It was a great experience and I strongly recommend it to Gettysburg visitors. My only suggestion is to try and get an indoor location to investigate! That would be amazing! Thanks :)

      Clinton was amazing! The three location investigation we did was perfect for our first investigation ever. Delivered what was promised and more. Evidence to prove it! Thank you so much!

      Great Experience!
      Booked an investigation for right after 4th of July and the reenactments. Cheyenne was our tour guide and gave us a great experience. Very knowledgeable about the locations we investigated and, like others have said, very respectful of both living and non living that were around. We were able to thoroughly investigate each of the locations we visited and were able to get some good experiences. Will definitely book another investigation the next time we're in town.

      Great visit
      We had Cheyanne as a guide and she did great! She is very fun and is great with giving backstory to the places we visited. This is the 2nd year we went on one of her tours and will be back next year.

      After Dark Investigations May Tour
      We had a wonderful time on our tour. This was the second tour that we've done with After Dark and both times were awesome. We went to three different places. We had the use of a lot of equipment. Our tour guides were awesome and very knowledgeable. We went to a new spot that we've never been, The Eisenhower Bridge, and had some wacky stuff happen! Great company and great tour!

      A Fantastic Paranormal Team!
      I dont know what happened to my first review, maybe it got lost somehow? Anyway I'm posting this to defend After Dark Investigations from some unwarranted reviews lately claiming they were "pushed out" of a public area by the group. I personally know the owner, he is a good man who's spent years building up the company to have the rock solid reputation it now possesses. His and his group's respect for the Paranormal and those who pursue it is unmatched, and many a time I've asked a question he was right there to help. The best advice I can give is try them out yourself before coming to a conclusion, they've spent years bringing high quality Paranormal investigations to the area and I cannot see why they would suddenly jeopardize years of building connections and local networks just to throw it all away. That's just not logical, and I know its not true.

      Great experience with lots of activity
      Fantastic experience. Cheyenne was great. I’ve been on several investigations elsewhere and she was very thorough in explaining the equipment for everyone, and she set everything up properly to minimize interference. I’ll definitely go again the next time I’m in town.

      Best tour in Gettysburg
      Oh wow! This experience was an adventure. My boyfriend and I came for a bit of ghosty fun and loved it so much we rebooked another tour for the following night. Just had to do it again! Clinton, our guide was informative and a pleasure to talk with. We got activity in different ways at the locations. Sometimes knocks, strange mist on video, cold spots, and communication words through a special device. Creepy feels at the last location. I've done a few ghost tours over the years and this is by far a favorite since you get to interact with the spirits. If you enjoy something different and a bit spooky, this is for you! Can't reccomend enough! Ask for Clinton!

    Don't waste your money. This was an absolute rip off. After we arrived to the wooded area outside Cemetary Hill, the guide turned on the Necrophonic app with a blue tooth speaker. She then reacted to all the canned voices and sounds like they were real spirits.

    Maybe this would work on less savvy folks? But hello it's 2022 and you would need to be born under a rock to not realize what was happening.

    Here is a excerpt from the developer's site if anyone is curious:

    Sounds and effects
    One of the main features of the Necrophonic app for Android is the variety of built-in sounds and effects. The unique atmosphere is achieved thanks to the successful combination and joint overlay of audio effects — reverb, multi-level echo and white noise. The sample database contains various variations of the equivalents of linguistic phonemes in foreign languages, which are randomly cut off and in some cases inverted in playback.

    We left early, frustrated that we wasted so much money on a fake experience. I mean at least try to be good at it.

    Avoid at all costs. You're better off with a walking Ghost tour and simple stories.

    Good morning, we are sad to see that you did not enjoy your investigation. That being said we use various devices in our investigation, to experiment with. We also provided Sb7s, Ovilus, K2s, etc.. All equipment can be debated on the validity since there are no facts to the paranormal. It is believed with certain devices or in this particular case, spirits are able to manipulate those word banks or effects. We can offer you an investigation on us if you come back to Gettysburg. Please call us at 717-451-1070 and we can discuss this. We have more than just that device you spoke of and encourage people to come to their own conclusions.

    We were very disappointed with this paranormal investigation. I don’t usually leave bad reviews but for the money the 5 of us paid, was not up to pare. As a paranormal investigator myself, I would have provided equipment that actually worked. Some didn’t work and others were not fully charged so they died midway through the night. Our guide, Arron was knowledgeable in the history that she told us but as an investigator you don’t go and tell the group to just go off and explore and leave the group to talk to strangers on a path. A group investigation should have been conducted creating more energy for sprits to be contacted. Also upon arrival, Arron told us twice that tips are greatly accepted which made us feel very uncomfortable since we did not have cash on us and thought the money we paid was more than enough. Hopefully this paranormal group will learn from this experience we had. Could have been way better if we just took our own rem-pod to these locations ourselves. We would have saved $250.

    We care about your experience with us very much. We called you after reading your review and explained about our new investigator and how it takes time to learn all of what it takes to do this job. The equipment should have been checked prior to leaving and this investigator will be retrained so this won't happen again with anyone else. Erin cares about her job but it's not the normal 9-5 position and it takes time. After speaking with you, we refunded your money because we don't expect to be paid for something that was not promised so I hope that helps and if your back in town again, please give us a call so we can show you why so many other customers love our investigations.

    Shyanne was a great guide. She was knowledgeable about the history of the areas we visited, and had a variety of ghost hunting tools. Things were very respectful in the ghost investigation and not antagonistic which I was happy to see. We enjoyed the hunt, it was spooky and fun, and we had good reception with the equipment. Would do it again! She also had to deal with a drunk local antagonizing people in our group, and she didn’t flinch before defending our group members & telling the drunk to take a hike.

    We traveled from California to check out some of the most haunted spots in the Northeast, and Gettysburg did not disappoint. Our investigation was with Clinton and he did a fantastic job. He was knowledgeable and shared the history of each area before we got started. He was enthusiastic yet incredibly respectful to the spirits we were trying o contact. We experienced a ton of activity and had a better investigation than we expected. Loved it!!!

    Clinton is phenomenal! We had such a wonderful time. Clinton was both knowledgeable about the history and the paranormal investigation equipment, techniques, & technology. What really stood out to us was the respect and reverence he had for the locations and spirits. This was very important to us as empaths… this isn’t some spooky haunted-house gimmick. Thank you Clinton for an exceptional evening! We look forward to going on this tour again and recommending this to all of our friends and family.

    After a full day of the Gettysburg Battle Field, I went on this tour with my adult son with Clinton as our ghost guide. Clinton was very knowledgeable, courteous, provided thorough instructions on how to operate the various insturments, and provided great detail about the history and events related to the sites we visited. It was definitely quite eerie and we felt our tour was well worth the money. I would definitley not bring young ones along or any adults that are easily spooked as it is not for the faint of heart!

    College party kids and drunk locals tampering with equipment and acting foolish ruined it for us. This was not my experience the first time I did this investigation. Our safety, personal equipment, and vehicle was not taken into consideration by the tour guide after confronting the people messing with everyone. I know it was not all the tour guides fault but could have been handled differently to not instigate things worse or have damage caused to personal property.

    I'm very sorry you had to deal with that situation. We have called the police in the past when people get rowdy and they do very little. I will talk to all of our investigators to make sure if it happens again to not confront anyone. I agree, it makes the situation worse especially with teens. It would be very helpful if you have the time to send an email to the mayor of Gettysburg and the police department. It might help coming from one of our visitors. Unfortunately, October is the busiest time for us and everyone wants to go on a ghost tour somewhere in Gettysburg so the crowds are there. Since we are open all year, I would suggest coming at a less busy time so this would be less likely to reoccur.

    Clinton was our guide and was absolutely amazing. He was knowledgeable & passionate throughout. This is not your common ghost history tour. You spend roughly an hour at each location utilizing various equipment with the help of your tour guide. I can't recommend this tour enough if you want a true paranormal adventure!!!

    Our evening tour on Dec 21, 2022 was truly an outstanding and extremely informative experience. Our tour guide Clinton is the Best! He provided a thorough and complete explanation of all the paranormal equipment, the history of all the sites visited and hands on interaction and background of the sites. Truly the BEST guide that my older son and I ever had the pleasure to be our guide on our real paranormal experience. Wow! Thanks again Clinton.
    We will be back for sure for another After Dark experience!!

    Our investigator's name was Cheyenne, and she did a great job of giving us the history of the 3 different spots we went to . She had a box full of equipment, showed us how to use it, and gave us all the option of either going off and investigating on our own, or staying close to her. We did have some activity, and it was a fun experience. Just wish that we had MORE activity! The whole experience lasted from 8:40-11:40ish.
