A group of American friends decide to go away on vacation to an exotic place in Peru, South America. They stay at the only hotel available in Tuncucu; an old castle built by the Spaniards during the conquest. That far-flung spot is nestling in the Andes but not away from the tropical jungle of the Amazon lying on the other side. There, they find the ruins of a seemingly extinc civilization. The old castle is apparently haunted but real trouble begins when they go on a excursion to the jungle on the other side of the mountains.
