A lot of extra detail in the exhibits like flickering fires, ships that creak back and forth on the waves and a great peek into the cellar of an underground RR house.

Janice Memory

One of the best gift shops in town . Amazing book selection. A must stop every time I visit Gettysburg!!!

Could have been a Disney attraction . . . 30 years ago. It's a place that tries hard to be fun and informative, but it really needs an update. We had free passes, so it was worth going.

Brett Garwood

Some of the ghost tours say its haunted. A bit creepy, but otherwise not too bad. Find a coupon for it, it's BOGO. The show at the end is very informative.

Ed Placencia

The wax museum was under construction but the gift shop was open for business.

Catherine Ritorto

Very nice staff and nice informative place to visit

Teresa Noel
