Creepy footage seems to show ‘ghost soldiers’ running across road at Gettysburg

"We saw these shapes moving in the darkness, they were the size of humans."

Footage taken by tourists visiting the famous American Civil War battle site of Gettysburg appears to show two ghost-like figures emerging from the darkness. Greg Yuelling and his family went to the battlefield in September last year to visit the place of one of America's most historic episodes, but ended up taking some pretty spooky footage as well. Yuelling, a store manager from New Jersey, said he was driving along the road at night when he and his family spotted "figures moving in the darkness." He managed to capture some footage though, which you can see below. He said that the moment was so scary that one of his uncles who he was with rolled the car window up. Yuelling said: "We just went there as tourists, to learn more about the history of the Civil War and see the old battle ground, where the Gettysburg Address was given and all that stuff. "We were driving along one night and we started hearing noises, I heard things to the left and my uncle heard things to the right, and there was a fog, but the fog was weird, it was only in one patch not dispersed.

"Then we saw these shapes moving in the darkness, they were the size of humans, one of them ran right through the cannon. [caption id="attachment_284966" align="alignnone" width="1244"] Credit: SWNS[/caption]
