The Bloodiest Battle

Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, stands as the site of the bloodiest battle in the American Civil War. Thousands of soldiers lost their lives, fueling beliefs that the site remains haunted. It is also where President Abraham Lincoln delivered his famous Gettysburg Address, which we will include in full later.

A Legacy of Hauntings

For over 150 years, Gettysburg has gained a reputation for hauntings. The battle was Confederate General Robert E. Lee’s final invasion of the North. Union troops repelled his forces, halting the Confederate advance.

Evidence of Ghosts

In the video below, Greg Yuelling from New Jersey asserts he captured ghostly evidence. Driving through the battleground, now a national park, on September 2, 2022, Yuelling believes his footage reveals ghosts haunting the area.

Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address

On November 19, 1863, Abraham Lincoln delivered this iconic speech:

“Four score and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

“Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

“But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate — we cannot consecrate — we cannot hallow — this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us — that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”
