At first no, because the similarities with some 80s movies are pretty obvious, but then I did a little digging. It is hilarious that in 'A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors' there is a kid named Will who frightens Freddy Krueger and then he gains confidence and becomes something like a magician and fight the villain just like Will from ST

Did you use a source to find these movies?
I think the question could be hard to answer (maybe not everyone knows which scenes were inspired by which movie).
Many more can be found here:
https://strangerthings.fandom.com/wiki/Influences_%26_references
I would definitely include:
Jaws
Indiana Jones trilogy (1981 - 1989)
Star Wars original trilogy
WarGames
Akira
Mad Max
Jurassic Park
Ghostbusters
The Shining
Halloween
Hellraiser
