“The Hardy Boys / Nancy Drew Mysteries” (re-titled “The Hardy Boys” for season three) was a TV mystery series based on the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew novel series that ran from January 30, 1977 to January 14, 1979. It starred Parker Stevenson and Shaun Cassidy as detective brothers Frank and Joe Hardy, respectively, while Pamela Sue Martin (later Janet Louise Johnson) starred as amateur sleuth Nancy Drew. “The Hardy Boys / Nancy Drew Mysteries” was unusual in that it often dealt with the characters individually; the series alternated between episodes that featured the Hardys and episodes featuring Drew in its first season. As the series progressed, the two storylines crossed over, and the Nancy Drew character was drastically reduced, and then dropped, in favor of the Hardys.
This is episode #2 from the first season (directed by E.W. Swackhamer) and follows Nancy Drew and her friends as they see a beam of light coming from a supposedly abandoned lighthouse. A professor tries to convince her that it is haunted, and the local sheriff thinks they're imagining things, so it's up to Nancy to solve the mystery. Of note, this marks the first appearance of Pamela Sue Martin as Nancy Drew.
