About this listen

Built in 1810, the Farnsworth House Inn has stood through centuries of history, including the bloody Battle of Gettysburg. Confederate sharpshooters once fired from inside, its walls still bear over 100 bullet holes, and its rooms once served as a Civil War field hospital. Today, this historic inn isn’t just a place to stay—it’s home to restless spirits. From the playful ghost of little Jeremy, to the stern soldier in grey who sometimes salutes guests, to the phantom cook who still prowls the kitchen, the Farnsworth is alive with spectral energy. Guests report phantom harp music, beds kicked in the night, shadow figures descending from ceilings, and even a ghostly cat. Hear about the hauntings that keep the nearby Holiday Inn reserving rooms for visitors too terrified to stay the night at the Farnsworth.
