Excited Stranger Things fans have demanded a full trailer for series two of the hit Netflix show after a number of 1970s and 80s movie-inspired spoof posters were released.

One image riffs on the movie poster for the 1985 cult classic The Goonies, with the cast mimicking the classic poses.

As well as a Jaws-themed poster, with the demogorgon taking the place of the giant shark and an Alien-esque image, Netflix also released artwork modelled after the A Nightmare on Elm Street, Firestarter, The Evil Dead, The Running Man and Stand By Me film posters.

The release sparked a frenzy on social media with Stranger Things fans crying out for more details of the new series, particularly a new trailer.

But some fans were quite content to simply enjoy the new artwork.

The second Stranger Things series is due to arrive on Netflix in October, a few days earlier than was expected.

​Showrunners had originally said that new episodes would drop on Halloween, but earlier this year it was confirmed with the release of the trailer, that the date would be October 27.

The trailer for series two hints that the haunted inhabitants of Hawkins, in particular the extremely unlucky Will, have far from escaped the demogorgon’s clutches.

Stranger Things series two arrives on Netflix on October 27.
