Nightmare on Elmstreet, Friday the 13th and Texas Chainsaw Massacre. How do we know if they don't have more influence with whats going on with the show then we are led to believe?

Because the show also made and homaged(not ripped off, there's a difference) Xenomorphs, Yautja, Big Trouble In Little China and The Thing episodes and Platinum Dunes has nothing to do with those properties.
Also Muckman is coming up, which is a clear reference/homage to Toxic Avenger, another thing Platinum Dunes has no hand in.
So no, I think the writers are just huge fans of horror movies and, given the new setting of a farmhouse in the middle of the woods, are just having fun with it.
And so am I, since I love horror movies.
