Live at Sachs Covered Bridge

Sachs Bridge is also very haunted. Paranormal groups and individuals go to the bridge at all hours of the day, mainly at night to possibly witness paranormal events. Without cameras, people hear drums, flutes, horses, and soldiers talking. Some people have seen full-figured apparitions of soldiers walking on and near the bridge. With cameras, ghostly images of soldiers, mist, and gray streaks appear on-screen.

In my experience, audio and and orbs are usually the highlight of the night. Names like Elizabeth, Col. Archibald, James, John, Colonel, Captain, and Catharine come through any spirit box. One may hear the sound of gunshots, cannon blasts, wagons, and horses through my spirit box and by hearing. More experiences and photographs will be added soon. Here are two live sessions at the bridge back in November 2021 (during Covid) that Soul Seekers Supernatural experienced.

Soul Seekers Supernatural

In the first video above, they talk about their fabulous night at the Tillie Pierce Inn House briefly in the beginning. Most paranormal groups that visit these places just ask for things to happen. With Allan and Chris, they talk to anyone that would like to just talk and show their energy through orbs or in pictures. In asking them questions, there’s a conversation between multiple spirits that come through their spirit box. Usually responses like the following are heard: yeah, yes, no, help, hello, male and female voices, among some stronger spirits that respond in more than one or two words.

Soul Seekers Supernatural

Spirits like to “hit” the battery and use the energy/power inside it to talk and interact with the living. Some stronger spirits can remember you if you visit often and talk between each other like acquittances. Remember to treat them with respect and try to ask them serious but open-ended questions that they can respond to with one to three words. Enjoy your experiences at the bridge on your visit to Gettysburg.
