Gettysburg is steeped in the history of the Civil War. In 1863, it was the site of the epic Battle of Gettysburg, in which some 50,000 soldiers were killed. It is also, of course, the place where Abraham Lincoln delivered the immortal Gettysburg Address. The town itself is made up of houses, hotels and taverns dating back several centuries, but Gettysburg offers more modern travel and leisure activities, as well, like wine tastings, orchard tours, shopping and golfing.

The owner and photographer Dave was great. Not only was he very professional, he was also knowledgeable about regiment specific uniforms, and period appropriate dress. He remained masked and compliant with all covid-19 regulations at all times. We decided to get both the wet plate tintype and digital photos, and he gave a discounted price for getting both. He also explained the preparation and developing process and we got to watch while our wet plate developed before our eyes. The scheduling was simple and able to be booked online. Walk-ins are welcome, but I suggest booking ahead of time as his appointments fill up fast.The location and parking are convenient. His costume and prop selection includes clothing accessories,furniture and weapons. Extra points for a selection of plus size clothing! We will be definitely be visiting again.

Our escape rooms are perfect for families looking for a bonding activity; couples looking for an unique date night; or businesses or co-workers interested in creative team building.

My husband and I did the Rebel Recon room and we escaped with just minutes to spare. Lots of great puzzles with good clues and it was fun to tie in the town's history into the room. Would definitely recommend!

Even before you walk through the door you can be entertained by the large chess game or the connect 4 outside, Once inside buttons, figurines, jewelry and t-shirts are just a few of the fun things before you even get to the games. Whether we purchase something or not we always have fun! This time we enjoyed participating in a game designed by the students involving local businesses. We collected our last card today and can't wait to play! LOVE this place!
