Synopsis: Two youngsters follow clues from an old diary hoping to find a treasure buried years ago on their aunt's Pennsylvania farm. From mysteries in vanishing food, odd lights, and mysterious happenings in the secret tunnel, things are not always as they seem. Joey and Jan Howard are disappointed when they have to spend half of their summer vacation with Great-Aunt Melinda on her Pocono Mountain farm. Expecting a rather dull vacation, they are delighted when they find an old family diary which tells of a strange mystery and a hidden treasure which has never been found. The search for the treasure leads to the discovery of a secret room in Aunt Melinda's attic, a mysterious tunnel which was used as a station in the Underground Railway before the Civil War, and to a deserted island in the middle of a lake where they meet a sullen and suspicious Indian boy. By the time the last of the mysteries is solved, Jan and Joey have made some unexpected friendships, including one with a horse named Patches.
