Gaineswood Plantation is said to be haunted by a young woman who died there prematurely, possibly due to being angry that her body was not returned to her home state for burial. Her alleged paranormal activities include playing the piano. The plantation is also a National Historic Landmark. The tale of Evelyn Carter, the "Lady in White," is the most famous haunting at Gaineswood. Evelyn, the nanny for the Whitfield children, is said to have enjoyed playing musical instruments with her charges. She died during a winter at the mansion but had requested to be buried in her home state in the north. Because the ground was too frozen, her body was kept on the property until spring. Though her body was eventually reinterred elsewhere, her spirit is believed to have been left behind at Gaineswood. Other versions of the story say she was angry her body was not immediately returned, causing her spirit to stay. Gaineswood Plantation was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. Built between 1843 and 1861 by owner and architect Nathan Bryan Whitfield, it features elaborate interior suites and domed ceilings. It is now a historic house museum.
