EVENT LOCATION
Bright Falls, Washington
Bright Falls (AWE-35)
EVENT SUMMARY:
An unconfirmed Threshold manifestation at Cauldron Lake, WA resulted in a fictional story written by the author Alan Wake creating an AWE in which reality was altered to match that of the story, though only locally and for a limited time.
EVENT RESPONSE:
Mr. Kirklund, Head of Investigations, was alerted on Sept. 13, 2010 by ex-Bureau agent Frank Breaker (see Alan Wake, the game) that an event was taking place in Bright Falls, WA (refer to events investigated in 1970, 1976, 1978). Breaker had received a call from Barry Wheeler (Alan Wake's literary agent) on behalf of Breaker's daughter, Sarah, who is the current sheriff of Bright Falls.
A Bureau field team arrived at the site two days later, only to confirm that the event was over. Interviews were conducted (refer to the 1970 poet Thomas Zane; 1976, 1978 Odin Anderson, Tor Anderson). Alan Wake was believed to have been the instigator. Eyewitness reports highlight an old light switch (possible Object of Power) that has not been found because it is missing. Wake was not found at the scene. Reports claim he dived into the lake, but no body was recovered in the search.

Alice Wake, Mr. Wake's wife, was found during the Bureau investigation. She was interviewed and evaluated. She showed signs of severe mental trauma in the form of cliché memory loss. She was later directed to treatment. It was concluded that she had been trapped in the Threshold during its manifestation.
Notable individuals still missing after the Bright Falls event are FBI Special Agent Robert Nightingale and Dr. Emil Hartman (refer to "The Creator's Dilemma" and the file re: the Cauldron Lake Lodge).
Bureau researchers believe this event was the result of a forceful perception of subjective reality (stemming from Mr. Wake) overlapping on our own. Wake has been flagged as a potential parautilitarian (see Prime Candidate Program file for more details).
In 2011, a book by Clay Steward titled "The Alan Wake Files" was published by Roundabout Press (New York and Olympia). Agents interviewed Clay Steward and suspected minor parautilitarian sensitivity. He was placed under indefinite surveillance.
NOTES:
A monitoring station was established at Cauldron Lake to alert the Bureau of any future activity.

--CONFIDENTIAL--
NOTE: Subject was alone during this outburst.
DF (17:52:16) — You again. I thought I told you to leave me alone.
DF (17:52:22) — Why are you showing me this? I can't do anything. Can't you see where I am? Why don't you help me get the fuck out of here? You always show me things I can't do anything about.
DF (17:52:36) — Stop showing me her! I don't care anymore! And I don't care about you! You both left me here to rot!
DF (17:52:46) — Fuck off, you bitch! I will dig out my own brains if it means getting rid of you! I don't want you here! Get the fucking message!
Subject repeated the phrase "Fuck off" numerous times before being sedated at 17:53.

Item belonged to Linda Carver. She was admitted to a mental ward for "emotional instability" soon after relocating to Illinois with her family in 1914.
The item only appears on record again in 2006 when the Bureau investigated a sudden rise in disappearances in Carpathia, Illinois. Agents found the item hanging in the local library. They contained it quickly, though the missing people of the town were never recovered.
SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIALS:
DATE: August 18th, 1915
We certify that the case of Mrs. Carver has shown her to be a lunatic under the reasons of Hysteria, Bad Company, and Imaginary Female Trouble. Her fixation with the family looking glass is noteworthy, though not an uncommon matter when considering the female disposition.
Mrs. Carver is a fit subject for the lunatic asylum and will remain in its confines until her affliction has passed.

I see your creepy teeth delivery and raise you a dead dog. Yeah, like a straight up deceased dog. Had a collar on it and everything. It'd been rotting in that box since they packed it up. Go ahead and imagine how that smelled.
So don't go whining to me. I wish I got to watch a parade of human teeth.
