Ghostly cannon fire

- Before we begin. Cavalry is spelled wrong. I decided to take another look at my Gettysburg video I produced back in 2012. I uploaded the original video that was shot in HD so that you could hear the loud booms. I don't know what these booms are but at the time it really did sound and feel like the war was still on and canons were being shot all around me. Please leave constructive comments and let me know if anyone else has experienced this kind of residual energy before.
I’ve been to Gettysburg more times than I can count, and there was a time where me and many people around me all heard cannon fire clear as day near devils den
Dalton Emig could it be renctments?
@@samuelrothenberg2225 No, I don't think it was reenactments. Because, things like that have been reported all over Gettysburg.
@@christinedubois7929 The ghost: "Look I might be dead but damn me If I were to let the Yankees win!"
It's a mighty powerful place..
DUDE I JUST DID, i was looking up what they sounded like to get a reminder, i literally just heard some at devils den
You would think they would be out of ammo by now.
Great comment. Ha Ha.
be serious they never run out in hollywood the hero shoots all the baddies without loading ha ha ha
LOL!!!!!
LoL yeah man that is a serious stock supply
These men (soldiers) were badasses. That rooster is pretty awesome too.
I was at Antietam a few years back near the edge of the Cornfield. I heard distant cannon fire and felt the weight of dread on me. It is such a surreal thing to experience.
I don't doubt the dread part as I've felt dread/sheer terror but not at Gettysburg.
Ive lived all my life, about 20 minutes down the road from Shiloh National Military Park, in southwest Tennessee. Ive spent hundreds upon hundreds of hours over the years, just walking the grounds. Ive never heard or seen anything paranormal, but I have felt that anxious feeling of dread that you mentioned, in certain different locations of the park. It is an odd and creepy feeling. Ive noticed it happening the most, in places like the Confederate mass graves. Dont know if that dread i feel, has anything to do with the paranormal, or if it has to do with thinking about how sad it is for me, to think about those kids being killed and thrown into
trenches on top of each other, however they happened to land, and covered with dirt. While the Federal troops killed there, have their own big and beautiful cemetery, and were all buried in their own graves, with honor and respect.
Just to let everyone know, I'm a reenactor and just finished up a living history reenactment at Gettysburg. During the night we heard distant gunfire and cannon fire EXACTLY like this at night and if that wasn't creepy enough something was thrown at our tents and everyone confirmed hearing the gunfire. The something hitting the tents is still kind of eerie but less likely to be paranormal.
I was in Triangle Field just last Saturday night 8/10 from 7-10 and we heard gunshots coming from Rose woods. We also heard canon fire coming from what sounded like beyond the peach orchard and then again from Cemetery ridge.
@@valpro99 I was there that night and I heard cannons going off in the distance at first I dismissed it as imagining things until a friend of mine came to my tent and asked if I heard the cannon fire. We were camped in Pitzers Woods and heard it loud and clear.
@@valpro99 The crazy thing is that if you and I heard it and my friend who was also in the regiment there that night heard it too, he was the one who reported a rock being thrown at his tent. People say Gettysburg isn't haunted but with all the bloodshed and terror and sacrifice of both sides there I don't doubt that those cannon shots were make believe or any of it.
OctavianTiberius were you with the scouts? I had a video camera rolling and an digital voice recorder so you can hear the gun shots and canon fire very clearly. No mistake what they are.
@@valpro99 Not sure what you mean by scouts. I was there with the 28th North Carolina, we were there from 11:00 AM Friday to 1:00 PM Saturday. We heard the gunfire while we were all in out tents sleeping.
Wow once video cleaned up, you can really here the cannons fire up to 8 times, just amazing. Bless all these soldiers, may they RIP
Wow! Edited version is incredible! I could almost feel it too. Thank you.
My headphones were only $12 new but I heard the BOOMS!
There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreampt of in our philosophy.
I went to one of the battlefields near Devil's Den and walked off the path towards the wooded area. There was nobody around me and I heard 2 shots from a musket about 50 yards in front of me. Really shook me up because it was so clear like someone was shooting at me. I asked a tour guide park ranger if there were any reenactments that day or if there was a gun range close by and there were none of that going on. He didn't believe in ghosts but said he would check it out where I was pointing it came from. It was at like 2pm in the middle of the afternoon too. Just shocking because I'm usually a skeptic.
Welcome to my world.
I was just at the Antietam battlefield; bloody lane at dusk last weekend and heard distant cannons as well. We also got it on video if anyone cares to see.
Alexander Casey
Yes please!
That would be great. Where do you have it posted?
Just visited Antitem last week. Odd emotional breakdown on the sunken road.
I've been all over Antietam and most of the major Civil War battlefields From the banks of the Mississippi to Charleston and from Gettysburg and Perryville Ky down to Florida. Antietam and Shiloh are (or at least as of 20 years ago were) the two best preserved battlefields out there in my view. Something about Antietam in particular, you can really feel the energy that's trapped there and at no spot more so than the Bloody Lane. I don't have or claim to have any paranormal abilities, quite the opposite, there'd have to be something very dramatic to happen for me to claim I just saw or heard a ghost, I'm not sensitive at all there. But there is just something about the Bloody Lane that is hard to explain but my guess is others that have been there would say the same.
I would like to, sorry for the late reply
Heard similar phenomenon on Saunders Field, off Hwy 20, Battle of the Wilderness, back in Jan 2014 driving home from reserve drill. As a Civil War history buff, I decided randomly, to stop by the field since I was driving right by it. Got out, took some photos and a video. It was a gorgeous Sunday evening. The trees were still glistening in the late evening sun from a previous snow shower that had passed a bit earlier. As I got out of the car, I heard what sounded pretty clearly like sporadic cannon fire in the distance (I'm an artillery officer, and know what cannon fire sounds like up close and at a distance), maybe one or two miles away. So, I was thinking there was maybe an artillery demonstration or reenactment going on until I realized that would not be normal on a Sunday evening on a winter's day with no Civil War battle anniversary of any kind on the calendar. I also got it on video, but never posted it, but still have it. The fire kept up for the entire 20 minutes or so I was there (which is also unusual for an artillery demonstration or even a reenactment since those rounds don't come cheap). Anyway, it was pretty cool. and I felt privileged to hear it. Not my first Civil War "ghost story". Had two others, both at Gettysburg. When I lived in Virginia, I would usually visit Gettysburg on the anniversary days of battle. Had the kids with me and we were standing by the John Burns statue in the middle of the day when we started smelling fresh gunsmoke. No re-enactments were going on until later in the week. Did not hear any fireworks and there was no one around us. No one had any cap guns or sparklers that we could see. The weird part was that it was only around the John Burns statue. Kids smelled it, too. Could have been a lot of other things. Second "ghost story" occurred as we were leaving the battlefield that same day on the road that runs by the base of Big Round Top. It was dusk, almost completely dark. Suddenly in my headlights on the right side of the road, walking against our direction, appeared a young man wearing a brown Civil war era uniform, rifle in hand, rucksack on his back looked at us, very neat in appearance, full head of dark brown hair, turned left up the hill through the tall grass then disappeared. All this happened in less than a second. I clearly saw the man, but was in no way shocked or startled, at first thinking it was a lost re-enactor--there were plenty around that day. For some reason, my first reaction was to look down at my dashboard, which I did for a fraction of a second, not sure why. When I looked back up, the man was gone. Even turned the car around to find him. I could not, but as I said it was dark by then. The kids were in the car with me, but they did not see him, although, I don't think they were looking out the window. Even though it happened so quickly, I can recall all the details clearly. First and only time I'd ever see anything like that. To this day, I'm not sure if I manufactured the image, or if I saw what appeared to be a Confederate soldier. In any case, it was pretty cool.
Great stories. If you wouldn't mind sending me a copy of your video I would love to review it for you. Thx.
Can't hear a thing
Thanks anyway. It is a bit hard at first but others have confirmed that they do hear the cannons. Or at least something that sounds like cannon fire.
try again
OK. Stop busting on me. It's too late to fix the spelling. You all just have to live with it or move on.
Cool Mcqueen go on my channel if u wanna here REAL cannon shots in Gettysberg all these people just lie he clean up the video lmao I herd nothing
valpro99 , I heard it. Put your ear up to the speaker. It sounded like it was out in the distance.
Just got back from Gettysburg. Was out with a local group After Dark Investigations. We were at the Grove on the back side of Cemetary Hill Friday night at about 2:45 AM. We got to hear one extremely loud cannon fire that sounded like it came from over in the direction of the Virginia monument on the west side of the battlefield. It was incredibly loud, and felt the concussion from it as well. Sounded just like what you have here, but only one shot, maybe 2 in rapid sucession.
Yes. I'm with you on that. Again its hard to say it's paranormal but it sure is exciting when it happens. Why would such a loud boom be heard and felt at 0245hrs. What else would be going on at that time? Thanks for checking out my video. Did you happen to record your experience?
At the time we had equipment going, but no audio recordings. There were 7 of us though in our group.
I was at Gettysburg on July 1st once years ago and you could feel like something was off about the place. It felt like people were around me even though I was basically by myself in the battlefield. Especially around devils den. You could hear what sounded like distant Cannon fire. Creepy but awesome at the same time standing on sacred ground.
Hey Gary. It’s a truly crazy place to explore. I’ve never been there that something doesn’t happen that I can’t explain.
@valpro99 is very strange.
I could hear it from the beginning with the volume up. But I knew what to listen for. I heard them at Manassas, as well.
That is creepy and yet so sad that the past has imprinted such a tragedy for us in the future. God bless all those soldiers.
We were near Spangler Springs in July 2007. We also heard canon fire. There were no re-enactors there that day. We asked a park ranger. It was late afternoon, close to dusk. It was very clear, unmistakable.
Yes. It was crazy that I heard and felt the back blast against my body.
@@valpro99wow! You felt it? Incredible.
I did.
Using earphones I can hear the booms in the edited version. It's amazing!! Thanks a lot!
When I visited Gettysburg it was getting late in the day and the light was starting to fade. I found myself on an isolated part of the battlefield, and I was all alone. Suddenly a sad-faced figure (who I recognised as General Lee) appeared on horseback from nowhere, took off his hat and asked me if I knew who won. I was too shocked to answer, and he replaced his hat, gave me a smile and disappeared. I don't believe in ghosts, and I have never told anyone this before.
Colin -- For real?
If you did see a ghost it wouldn’t have been lee because lee knew who won because he pretty much ended the war by surrendering
the boom sounds came out better after the audio was edited. I was recently at Gettysburg in Dec. 2017 and heard very faint sounds of booms and shootings at various places of the battlefield.
Yes. The booms came through when I actually published the HD video this time around. I've heard what sounded like gun fire before but was told it was only a shooting range. Funny how there was no shooting range in the area I heard the gun shots from. Again. You had to be there to appreciate what I heard and felt. No matter what I publish no one will ever believe you.
Good for you that would be amazing to hear.
@@valpro99 My wife and I go to Gettysburg every year, and some of the historians let you shoot their authentic civil war rifles at the end of their presentations. Mind you they are just powder with paper. That happens sporadically during the week. Maybe that’s the gunfire you hear. The cannon sounds were amazing!!!!
One of my dreams, to go there. Maybe someday. Closer to me (Poland) is some haunted forrest in Russia, what i was visited maybe year and a half ago. It is called "Miasnoj bor" and there was one of the heaviest battles in eastern front during II WW. Also u can hear there yells in Russian, German, even Italian (It is documented: Italians fought on that battle on Nazi's side) but mostly u can hear gun shots, cannons, Soviet's red Army in charge (literally they shout "Urrrrrraaaaaaa!")
Glad you liked my video. It was crazy to hear and feel the canon fire. You had to be there to appreciate it.
Saw a ghost trains rear lamp once. Forget what the place was called but it is pretty famous in the area. Its near Gettysburg I think.
I had visited the battlefield a few times before, and had heard about others experiencing this. My last visit was probably around the time this was recorded. It was very near dusk when a long succession of cannon fire sounded from the ridge across from my friend and I. The sounds moved along the ridge and was unmistakably loud. No reenactment, no smoke, just the booms and then dead silence. My friend had never been before and asked “ was that what I think it was? “ I couldn’t say for sure, but honestly cant think of another reason…. Odd
I hear it, without headphones even. But you have to listen extremely close. Boom 4 is the easiest I'd say.
Thanks for listening.
Hallowed an Sacred Soil. The Blood of Thousands of Young Men. Being from Philadelphia have been told, July 3rd 1863, You Could hear the thunder of Cannon fire 125 miles away , Gettysburg to Philadelphia.
Unbelievable! Easily hear the booms. I pray that the souls rest in peace. 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for taking the time to checking out my video. Much appreciated.
valpro99 not a problem :) very courageous if you to capture it. I have been reading about Gettysburg and it gives me goosebumps. Again all we can say that war doesn't lead to anything peaceful. I hope the souls RIP. 🙏
People taken in troubled events cause lost souls
I believe they are. I don't think there are spirits here, just residual. Like on loop/broken record.
You can hear and see stuff at Bull Run too sometimes. I was just there and it sounded like muskets firing in the distance.
I worked as a tour guide here from 1982-2012' you would be amazed at what I saw and heard over the years! Tourists would always ask is their a demonstration today of cannon fire and I'd just smile and say No! One day early in the morning I was right at the edge of West Confederate avenue when the entire Virginia army came marching out of the tree line and it was like 1000's of men and the drummer boys playing ghost horses and the men with no eyes. Almost crapped my pants! lasted for about 2 minutes straight and slowly started to fade away. They couldn't see me but I could see them on July 3rd 1998 the following year I waited at the same time and saw nothing. I always wondered why it was at that exact moment and place!
David. I've heard similar stories from numerous people that were ither visiting or working in the park. I have a few other videos on my YT channel that demonstrate this. I don't believe they are ghosts of past lives or spirits but a recording of past events that under the perfect conditions replay themselves. If you happen to be at the right place at the right time you just might get to witness this as you have done. it would also explain why when you returned the same day and time a year later you didn't see the images again. The conditions were different and thus the playback couldn't happen.
I don't know how the Hell anybody can claim hearing anything except for those damn Birds
I heard them too.i use to go there all the time.
Wow, great capture. Surprised I heard it just using my phone - and in the daytime w/ambient sound in the background.
Can only imagine what it felt like to record it - or in the horror of the battle itself.
Fwiw, today is 10/7/23. Who knows what'll next happen on earth? Most folks love peace. No idea why humanity keeps paying the price for the minority of men who are war-mongers. Here's to our better angels, as the man mentioned long ago.
Take care, everyone.
Rest in peace, soldiers.

Same thing happened to me back around 2009. We had our scout troop camped at the camping grounds on the confederate side. At some point during the night I woke up and before drifting off, I heard the booms. Very faint, like it was very far off. I've often wondered if it wasn't something the park service does to drum up business. But those cannons...if real...had to be miles and miles away. At the battle of Bull Run, which was 26 miles from Washington DC, they could hear the cannons in town. I would think that if the park service was doing this...someone somewhere would need to be close to these and be complaining a lot about it. SO that tends to make me think it was real.
Another believer.
I got the chills cause I'm into 19th century battles, There is nothing like the sound of a cannons roaring
I spend a lot of time in Gettysburg. It's not uncommon to hear cannon fire . Especially at night.
Yes. Completely agree. Thanks for checking out my video.
Acá en mi ciudad , en Argentina en el 20 de febrero de 1813 hubo una batalla la cual murieron muchas personas, hay un campo alejado que por las noches se oyen caballos y gritos de personas agonizando. Es increíble. Saludos
Y'know...alot of the so-called "ghostly" experiences on RUclips are so obviously either nothing at all, or nothing special, but THIS one....brrrr...it gave me the cauld grue just listening to it! You were fortunate to experience such an exceptional event! Congrats!!!
Thank you. Its funny how some can hear the canon fire and some cannot.
valpro99 It IS! I showed this to my husband, because it is SUCH an astonishing video, and he was like, "Uuhhhh...what is it I'm supposed to be hearing?" I couldn't believe he wasn't hearing what had been SO clear to me!! Frustrating!!!
Omg
headphones I can hear them very well
Yup...gotta listen thru headphones, but clear as day, several shots - better with the edited version.
Thanks for checking out my video. I was very cool to experience this first hand.
I don’t have headphones but I heard the booms clearly. I’ve seen this video before. Thank you for cleaning it up and re sharing it
You know, hearing ghostly Canon Fire on The Gettysburg Battlefield is not that uncommon. Great Video, guys!
Thanks. You know I really wasn't expecting much when I arrived. It was around 630am. I knew I wanted to be ready at the site as early as possible to cut down on any possible noise contamination.
Amazing.
Yes sir I hear the cannons. Thank you for teaching your children about history. Look up the twin sisters cannons in Texas. It's a good story that still lives on. 1836 to 1865.
Thanks for the tip. I will check the twin sister cannons out.
That is terrifying but cool at the same time
Yep Very fascinating when it happened. Never expected it.
Crazy to think they still at war
I think this is residential haunting.
Consider the possibility that entities we perceive as ghosts reside in a quantum state, distinct from our classical understanding of reality. Quantum superposition, where particles exist in multiple states simultaneously, could be a fundamental characteristic of these ghostly entities. Instead of adhering to the conventional laws of classical physics, these entities may navigate a quantum plane where their existence is defined by a spectrum of possible states.
Entanglement, another crucial quantum phenomenon, could play a role in the manifestation of ghosts. Imagine that during significant life events or moments of intense emotion, the particles associated with an individual's consciousness become entangled with the surrounding environment. This entanglement forms a unique quantum signature that persists beyond physical death, creating a quantum consciousness residue.
This quantum consciousness residue could exist on a parallel quantum plane, intersecting with the quantum fields in our physical world. The intersection points might serve as gateways or conduits, allowing glimpses of the quantum entity to manifest in our observable reality. These intersections could occur under specific conditions or in locations with heightened quantum activity, providing an explanation for why certain places are perceived as haunted.
The quantum plane inhabited by these entities might not adhere to the constraints of time as we understand it classically. Time in the quantum realm could be non-linear, allowing ghosts to appear at different points in their past or future. This temporal flexibility could explain reports of apparitions reenacting historical events or seemingly interacting with contemporary observers.
Additionally, the uncertainty principle could contribute to the elusive nature of ghosts. The more precisely we attempt to measure their properties, the more uncertain their position and momentum become. This inherent uncertainty could explain why ghosts often appear as fleeting, ethereal figures, defying conventional notions of solid matter.
The entanglement between the quantum plane of ghosts and our physical world might also influence electromagnetic fields. Ghostly manifestations could produce fluctuations in these fields, potentially leading to anomalies detectable by electronic devices. This interaction aligns with reports of paranormal activity affecting lights, sensors, and other electrical equipment.
However, the challenge lies in bridging the gap between the quantum and classical worlds. The fragile nature of quantum states and the susceptibility to decoherence in the presence of external factors make it difficult for these entities to maintain a stable connection with our reality. The intersections between the quantum plane and our physical world could be sporadic, explaining why ghostly encounters are often unpredictable and elusive.
wow. for a guy that only has three subscribers to his channel that is some interesting analysis. What's your background Craig?
Me and my wife was just at the battlefield in Perryville, Ky. We was just standing there reading a placard, then all of a sudden we hear an unexplainable boom and then another off in a bit further. They sounded just like what you captured.
Did you feel an back blast pressure against your body? I sure did. It's one thing to just hear the booms but a complete other thing to actually feel it. I've been around 50 cal and canon fire and I know what the back blast feels like. Super creepy and exciting for sure.
@@valpro99 i cant say if it was blast pressure or not against my body but it was more of a inward pressure that was only contained inside my body. Like how one would feel moments after the blast and the initial shockwave goes through. If any of that makes any sense. It was also mixed with that erie feeling. One could chop up the sounds to a backfire of a lawnmower, which there was one mowing around the museum. But i know what that sounds like and it wasnt that. These booms was too loud as well, and came from the direction of the ridges where the initial fighting started.
Wow, that was amazing! Cleaned up audio really was loud and clear! Very creepy... 👻...
I heard it, it sounds like stepping on a metal roof
It's interesting that you say that.
In many first hand accounts of battles like Gettysburg the soldiers said the gunfire sounded like rain on a tin roof.
I was there yesterday & heard multiple cannons going off. The rest of my group didn't hear it except for 1 other person, so cool!!!
Nice.
I had a very similar experience at Spotsylvania in 2015. I believe I was completely alone in the park. It was in December at 3PM. 4 distinct booms with air concussion. In fact, it sounded like just air when I listened later, but when I enhanced the audio, you can hear it plainly, just like I did when I was there.
I heard it, and without headphones. There have been battle reenactments near my house (I live near a battlefield in Scotland, UK) and I have heard a lot of gun/cannon-fire. It really does sound like distant cannons. Not guns - cannons.
Wow. Scotland. I hope to visit there someday. The cool thing about this event, even more than the sound, was the back blast I felt against my body. I'm in the military and I have been around the big guns when they have been fired and I'm telling you I felt the same pressure. It was so neat.
valpro99
Definitely come if you have the chance! 🙂 I live near the site of the Battle of Dunbar, where that bastard Oliver Cromwell defeated the Scots in 1650.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Dunbar_(1650)
There have been a few reenactments over the years, using replica cannons and guns from the period. Dunbar may have been 213 years before Gettysburg, but the sound of cannon fire is very distinctive. I’ve heard it up close and a few miles away. That definitely sounded like cannons.
That’s so cool that you actually _felt_ it. It suggests to me that it sounded distant because of the passage of time rather than your physical proximity to the source...would you agree?
Thanks lots for sharing. Have you captured anything else at Gettysburg before/since?
Such an awesome video. We've experienced it to.. really didn't believe folks when they said they heard cannon Gunfire until I heard it with my ears. Something you will never forget.
I hear you. I felt what seemed like back pressure against my body too. Crazy stuff for sure.
I have no doubt that you can hear them. I’ve heard them and have seen the fire recoil of cannons that are no longer there at Gettysburg. It’s pretty eerie. I just can’t hear them on your recording. Sorry!
Thanks anyway. Not sure why I can hear them and others can't. Not sure why others can and others can't.
I sensed it by the feeling of pressure. My left ear is very sensitive.
Nice.
Very cool. I could not hear the booms until the audio was cleaned up due to the crickets and other bug noises. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the comments.
Definitely feel the impact, know what you're talking about.
THERE WAS SO MUCH DEATH IN SUCH A SHORT TIME IN A SMALL AREA NO DOUBT THIS PLACE IS SUPER HAUNTED
This video and the Fife and Drum video in the field are the best ones I've seen yet
I agree. The Fife an Drum video taken on Wheatfield Rd between Sickles Ave/Ayres Ave was crazy.
Battlefields are unique. Even the ones that aren't preserved. All that energy and violence and pain leaves something behind.
Even the Rebel yell is also together with the cannon boom!
MVs1940 no way! Really? I’ll have to go back and listen again. You are the 1st one to point that out.
@@valpro99 1:33 Really sounds like a Rebel Yell.
@@MVs1940 That's the rooster.
@@valpro99 Oh, alright. Pardon me for my false sight.
I’ve heard similar sounds at Third Winchester Battlefield. Me and my family were walking on the trails in the evening and heard one. I thought it was a accident or something because the battlefield is located near busy roads. We checked… nothing
Alot of folks up there blast large rocks and boulders and tree stumps from their fields using black powder. I'm not far from Gettysburg and the practice of stump/rock blowing is still popular. We have someone on a 40 acre farm who has a cannon, very different sound and feel.
I had family at the east Cav field. Alot of flat farms and sound travels, been there alot and heard booms occasionally.
Also, there are tons of farms that host reenactor only events as well as spectator events. Many of our reenacting units use private farms and historic homes for training camps.
So if your actually hearing artillery its some sort of event or demo. We do them constantly around that area!
Charles Calvert thanks Charles. I completely agree that what I heard could very well of been from a farm where re-enactors were shooting off cannons. I don’t know why they would of been so at 6am but I guess it is possible. And if they were I do t know why they would of only done 6-8 shots all within 30 seconds and called it a day. But I guess anything is possible.
I live in Gettysburg and I would like to remind people that this isn’t some trendy Liberal metropolis. There’s folks out shooting their guns or hunting. You’ll hear a lot of booms. But if you want to think it’s something ghostly that’s fine too.
Logica Redux at 6am in the morning?
valpro99 - It’s Light out.
Logica Redux and how do you explain the concussion force I felt against my body?
valpro99 - I can’t. As I say, you are free to believe what you wish. What I have noticed about people, and that includes me because I have had spooky experiences on the battlefield too, is that people will experience whatever is necessary to support what they want to believe is happening. I had an experience by Culp’s Hill at 2am that was terrifying. I was convinced I experienced everything that I perceived was happening. But much later, being honest with myself, I was also able to come up with rational alternatives for every element of it. I guess there’s just something about this place for obvious reasons that brings this out in us.
Logica Redux well if you go through life pushing for a logical explanation for every paranormal thing that happens to you then you’ll never know if it paranormal or not.
I did a reenactment at Gettysburg, and that is distant artillery.
Well I spent 35 years in the army around big guns and that is distant artillery.
Sorry with the volume full blasts and it up against my ear, I couldn’t hear a thing. I wish I had.
Margie, it’s strange that some can hear it and others can’t. Oh well. Thanks for trying.
Margie, it’s strange that some can hear it and others can’t. Oh well. Thanks for trying.
I have heard cannon fire first hand in Gettysburg when investgating the woods by Sachs bridge at night with friends. It does happen
it never fails when ever I'm there I hear gunshots. the park is open until dusk in the summer and I've hear it in the woods next to Triangle Field. The doubters keep saying it's nothing and just hunters or shooting ranges. At 10pm at night?
@@valpro99 Exactly it's quite strange
That’s either a railroad hitching cars or a dump truck emptying a dumpster.
Nope. Not buying it. I've been around big guns for 30+ years being in the army. I've also been around railroad cars and dump trucks. Not the same.
@@valpro99 , ok sure. It was ghosts.
@@samcoleman5705 We'll never know for sure but thanks for the comments just the same.
@@valpro99 , oh I know for sure.
Just to think that they are no longer with us anymore and they are still fighting
All I could hear was their voices and the birds. Bollocks that was not cannon fire. I have been near cannons firing myself as artillery reenactor here in the uk.
MountainRecluse I was thinking it was possibly trash/dumpster pick up.
I heard booms clear as day with headphones. I've been next to artillery fire at reenactments too and this is it. Also it is VERY quiet at East Cavalry Field and there are NO dumpsters or big trucks around. Reenactments are not allowed on the battlefield using artillery. That is why they do the yearly reenactments on Pumping Station Rd site.
I have a video on my channel. In the video I am walking around an old battlefield in RI. At the end of the video I get residual musket fire. The camera even moved when the musket went off. Truly amazing stuff.
just checked out your RI video. Very cool.
Nothing but voices and birds
Thanks for listening just the same.
Let's ignore the fact that there is an active quarry not far away.
Let's also ignore the fact that there is a tactical training center in the area that trains military and tactical LEO teams in tactics and explosives.
Depending on the needs/demands of the group, they'll detonate explosives at various times of day or night. Let's also ignore that garbage trucks come in the weeee hours of the morning.
Let's also ignore that police are regular called to poaching. Guess the ghosts have to eat right?
We can also ignore the psychology of it. Don't think about pink elephants.... great now everyone reading this is thinking about pink elephants... and some of you probably could hear one.
You could be correct with all of your assumptions. That's why, if you read most of my comments, that there could be alternative answers to everything paranormal. I'm not a 100% believer myself.
This is astonishing to lessen to
That's great that you can hear them because many viewers cannot.
@@valpro99 its kinda creepy but awesome
I could hear it after a couple of tries. The souls of those soldiers will not rest and will always wander the fields once stained with blood
For God sakes, to be taken seriously, at least spell Cavalry correctly. Calvary is where Christ was killed.
You are correct. What can I say. I suck at spelling
Actually "cannon" is spelled wrong too. It's got two n's when you're talking about the military firing piece. :-)
Yea Yea. I needed to hire Sarah and William to proof read my description. Next time you all go to Gettiesberg and set up camarals and rekord yorselves. their.
hey he took the video, the seplling si sceondayr
So, this gentlemen posts a fascinating video and all you trolls can do is be Grammar Nazis? Grow up. We're not all as perfect as you think you are.
Thats pretty cool. I can hear it better when you replay it. It definitely sounds explosive to me. I've listened to the audio archives of the battle of Britain and the blitz with the British anti aircraft artillery guns firing at the German planes. That sounds similar to my ears.
I apologize it was my own music from ultimate General Gettysburg I was hearing in the background. My bad lol awesome video. I should send you some pictures of me engulfed by orbs at the Poinsett bridge near where I live
Did all the "booms" seem to come from one direction as you were filming or did the source seem vague?
All seemed to be coming from in front of the camera. I was filming on Gregg Av. Facing SW. Toward Hanover St.
I've recorded sounds with my iphone (if that's what you're using) and definitely the mic is not as sensitive as an ear. I clearly hear things that don't get onto the recording, the hardware is simply not sensitive enough.
I use only Sony HDR-SR12's for my investigations. I've never used a cell phone. I like the Sony's because they were the last model with IR night vision.
At about this point I swear I can hear 2 or 3 really faint booms. Then 1:31 I hear 2 more BOOMS >Really fast but Loud Enough< before the first boom is flashed on the screen.
AFTER THE 3rd boom there’s a rapid succession of booms HERE ( 1:38 ) before Booms 4 through 8 are flashed on the video.
I can barely hear it. It's there all right. Behind the roosters. The only thing I don't understand is if he said he heard the booms ”really really really far away ” how could he have felt the concussions from the artillery? Weird. I did hear the ”booms”. I used Razr earbuds and my iPhone. Pretty cool!
I'm with you on how was it possible I felt the concussions of the blasts. I have no explanation for what I felt.
valpro99 I guess there isn’t anything cut and dry when it comes to the paranormal. It was an amazing catch though! I’ve wanted to go to Gettysburg for a long time and be able to go out in the battlefields early in the morning or late in the night. You are very lucky to be able to do that ! ✌🏻😊
Gettysburg and vicksburg fell the same day! July 4th 1863
I wonder if Vicksburg has the same kind of paranormal activity as Gettysburg.
valpro99 I dont think so due to the loss of life and the suffering on both sides!
Can hear it clearly after you edited the audio. Amazing...chills..!
Thanks for listening. it is pretty amazing to hear.
Hard to pick up but thanks for trying. I was there last month at Benners hill and could hear rifle shooting down in Rock Creek. Couldn't pick up on my phone. I wanted to find out how to get to where they were doing it. Must have been a historical demo shoot or something like that. Is there any way to go see those at the battlefield?
At First Couldn't Hear Any Booms Then After Quite A Few Seconds Then I Could Start Hearing The Booms
That is amazing!!
By the way I don’t believe in this stuff but, 4 shots would be 4 cannons which equals a confederate battery basically how they arranged their guns is by 4, so just saying it’s interesting on why it’s 4 could be a battery haunting the place.
Corporal Brian thanks for the little bit of history as I did not know that.
@@valpro99 Also the guns back then fired one by one, from the left working down to the right, also just saw 2 more videos of 4 shot cannon experiences, one of them was from Gettysburg and the other didn't say but i think it was, very interesting alot of things in these videos either decrease or increase in loudness which would support the left to the right firing...
Also as a child, I had to sleep in the same room that had the union 1st commissioned officer pants my many greats grandfather was killed in at the battle of Richmond Kentucky, allot of paranormal activity in my house along with other WW2 artifacts!
Im guessing youve never heard empty train cars banging together in the distance.
I have. Sounded and felt nothing like empty train cars banging together.
Wonderful bird song
That's Incredible. Must've felt pretty cool to.
You have no idea.
Very good capture Brother
I wasn’t lucky enough to see or hear anything out of the ordinary on my visit to Gettysburg :(
We heard it at dusk to and just turned my phone off right before it happened
If not likely residual haunting? Since the filming of Gettysburg, seem to make the area more active.
Just a factual observation: Gettysburg is approx 40 miles from Harrisburg, and the cannon fire at the Battle was reportedly heard there...probably as faintly heard in Harrisburg as in this video. My point being that if these "ghostly sounds" are to represent what one would have heard AT this actual location, the level is far too low.
Good point Jim but I've come to learn that residual energy is not as strong or loud as the energy at the time of the actual event. Sometimes it is put it seems that most of the time it isn't.
I hear it, it's like a faint sound that you can actually feel
Excellent. Not everyone can hear the booms. Your the 1st one to say you can feel them. Thanks for checking out my video.
Can you tell me where you located at the battlefield? Is there particular conditions this is heard, like certain atmospheric conditions like low solid clouds, stuff like that? Or is it just random? I came back to this and was adjusting volume, finally cranking full volume. Even the unedited the left headphone literally vibrates on booms 1,2,3,4 with 1 being strongest. I've been there once and hired a guide to drive our car, that was well worth it for a first time visit.
Thanks for listening. This was recorded at the East Cavalry battle field with is just a few miles from Gettysburg. You can look it up on line for a full description and exact location.
@@valpro99 Dec 2020 ended back here accidently. Had very high quality in-ear headphones with noise cancelling. In the edited part I'm hearing 2 to 3 booms before the louder one you labeled as Boom 1. When booms 4 thru 8 go off I had a "visual" of a line of cannon ripple firing. A little eerie.
Ok I hear it at the end. Thanks for posting
Cool.
We have that around here. It's called thunder.
I once read where the heaviest artillery fire at Gettysburg could be faintly heard near Pittsburg, PA. and other places due to atmospheric conditions. Is that true?
Not sure if it could be heard all the way to Pittsburg, since it's 185 west of Gettysburg but I have heard reports it would be heard in Harrisburg. Some reports even said it could be heard 140 miles east toward Philadelphia.
