47 things you may have missed on Netflix's 'A Series of Unfortunate Events' season 2

This post includes major spoilers for the "A Series of Unfortunate Events" book series and the second season of the Netflix show.

The second season of Netflix's "A Series of Unfortunate Events," like the first season, is filled to the brim with Easter eggs and hidden references. They're slipped into the background and show just how deep and interconnected the Lemony Snicket universe is.

The show is adapted by Daniel Handler, who wrote all 13 books the show is based on under the pen name "Lemony Snicket." On the show, Patrick Warburton plays Snicket, and he's narrating what happened to the Baudelaire orphans, who are trying to escape the clutches of the evil Count Olaf, who wants to steal their family fortune. The second season adapts five books in all: "The Austere Academy," "The Esratz Elevator," "The Vile Village," "The Hostile Hospital," and "The Carnivorous Carnival."

It's a story filled with secret organizations, mysterious characters, and a highlight performance by Neil Patrick Harris as Count Olaf. The show also enlarges the universe from the books and takes advantage of the visual medium by slipping in jokes and clues when you least expect them. Even the opening song to each episode has clues.

Here are 47 Easter eggs and references you may have missed in the second season of "A Series of Unfortunate Events," streaming on Netflix now.

On the first episode, Mr. Poe holds up a book that looks familiar.

It's called "The Pony Party!" about "the three luckiest children in the world" who "have only wonderful things happen to them."

You may have recognized it from "Lemony Snicket: The Unauthorized Autobiography."

The reverse side of the book jacket for Handler's fictional autobiography had a cover image for "The Pony Party!" It's written by "Loney M. Setnick" as the first book in "The Luckiest Kids in the World!" Snicket recommends it as a happier book to read instead of "A Series of Unfortunate Events."

On the show, Snicket also refers to it in passing on the first season. During the "Miserable Mill" episodes, he recommends that you stop watching and "pretend the woman at the door is the Duchess of Winnipeg and she’s come to throw the Baudelaires a pony party at her chateau."

The design of the book also resembles the real-life "Series of Unfortunate Events" books.

Brett Helquist created the original cover art for each book in the series.
