13 details you probably missed in 'Fear Street Part 1:1994'

The first line of the series is when Heather reads the tagline from "The Wrong Number" book cover — "It began as a prank ... and ended in murder!"

Ryan's attack on the mall victims actually starts the same way. He was just pranking Heather at first, but then he got taken over by the witch and killed Heather and six others.

To help establish the setting, Heather sets up an entire display of books from authors popular during the 1990s, including romance novelist Jackie Collins and fantasy writer Terry Brooks.

Stephen King's original version of "Insomnia," which came out in 1994, can also be spotted on a shelf.

The bookstore Heather works in has a full shelf of books from Robert Lawrence, which fans may recognize as "Fear Street" author R.L. Stine's first and middle name.

The names of the books feature real "Fear Street" book titles, like "The Wrong Number" and "The Surprise Party."

The book that originally saves Heather from being stabbed is also a Robert Lawrence book.

The opening credits show police notes about Heather and Ryan's deaths.

Heather's death is listed as violent and Ryan's has a sketch showing where he was shot.

The sequence also tells viewers that they died on October 1, 1994.

As Denna and her friends will discuss throughout the movie, Shadyside has a long history of tragic murders, typically committed by people who seemed to "suddenly go mad."

The town's history includes a murder spree at a camp (which was turned into the mall where Heather worked), a girl killing her friends, and a witch named Sarah Fier being killed in 1666.

The history is shown in the credits, on Josh's instant messages, and again as newspaper clippings.

When Denna goes to school on October 2, her classmates are referencing Heather's death the night before in various ways.

Some students are mocking the event by dragging a girl-sized doll on the floor. Others left heartfelt notes on Heather's locker.

The notes feature the phrases, "rest in peace," "miss you already," and "gone but not forgotten," an interesting choice for someone who has been dead for less than 12 hours.

Ryan wears a skeleton mask while he kills Heather and the other mall victims.

The next morning, in what may be a subtle nod to the killer, Josh is playing a video game that features a skeleton and its disembodied head on the right of the screen.

The game appears to be "Castlevania: Bloodlines," which was released in 1994.

The Shadyside players have blue and white uniforms and Sunnyvale athletes are shown in red and white.

The Sunnyvale players have their last names printed on the back of their jerseys, a detail the Shadyside students don't have. This may reinforce the idea that Sunnyvale has more funding and money than Shadyside.

While at the hospital, Josh gets free drinks and snacks from the vending machine by typing a specific combination on the keypad.

This is a pretty popular trick that used to work on some older machines. It also tends to be a bit more complicated than what Josh seemed to do.

Simon watches "Jaws" while Kate is babysitting. The scene he's watching shows the characters baiting the shark with blood.

The teens follow this example later on, baiting the killers with Sam's blood to set traps and throw them off Sam's scent.

The Shadyside mascot is a witch — an interesting choice for a town whose first murder was the killing of a witch.

Sunnyvale's mascot is also supernatural — a devil.

Era-appropriate music can be heard from the mall's speakers, Denna's Walkman, and Josh's speakers.

Some of the popular '90s tracks played include Nine Inch Nails' "Closer," Garbage's "Only Happy When It Rains," and Radiohead's "Creep."

But "Only Happy When It Rains" came out on Garbage's 1995 album, meaning it wouldn't have actually existed in 1994, when this movie is set.

Josh's basement computer setup includes items that someone might actually have in the 1990s.

He has a Commodore computer (the company actually filed for bankruptcy in 1994, the year the movie takes place) and a stack of video games like "Dragon Lair," a series that kicked off in the 1980s.

Deena also comments on how expensive is is to have AOL, one of the early internet-access subscription services that grew in popularity throughout the 1990s.
