In the shadow of Gettysburg's blood-soaked fields stands a brick building haunted by more than just memories.

Born from the tragic death of Sergeant Amos Humiston-who died clutching a photo of his three children-the National Soldiers' Orphans' Homestead opened in 1866 as a beacon of hope for the war's fatherless children. But hope quickly turned to horror. Under the tyrannical rule of matron Rosa Carmichael, the orphanage became a house of cruelty: children chained in a dungeon-like cellar, starved, beaten, and broken. The institution that promised refuge delivered nightmares instead.
