In priming for season two, producers have opted to lean deep into Stranger Things‘ spiritual tether to the great thrillers of and around the era; on Thursday, the Netflix program’s official Twitter account released an array of original posters, each of which pays homage to a different horror, slasher, or sci-fi epic from the late ’70s or ’80s.
