Gettysburg Battlefield - Peach Orchard

A Brief History: The Peach Orchard is located at the intersection of Wheatfield Road and Emmitsburg Road. The Peach Orchard was the site of intense fighting on day two of the Battle of Gettysburg. On July 2, 1863 Union 3rd Corps Commander Daniel Sickle ordered his troops to occupy the Peach Orchard believing that it was a good strategic location to control. The unit was vulnerable to artillery fire on both sides and was eventually overrun from the area by Confederate troops. The fight at the Peach Orchard was one of the bloodiest of the entire battle.

Haunted History: The ghost of Confederate soldiers are sometimes seen and captured on camera in the orchard. Many people also report feeling like they are vulnerable or in the midst of a battle while at the Peach Orchard. Another frequent claim is of random cold spots that pop up and go away, even during the summer months.
