A Car in Flight

A Car in Flight is one of the Collectibles found in Alan Wake's American Nightmare. It is one of the pages of the Return manuscript.

Manuscript text[]

The car seemed to sail through the crisp mountain air in slow motion, spinning around one axis almost lazily. The moment was hypnotic.

Then it struck the pipeline in a shower of sparks, the impact turning the windshield into a burst of safety glass. As it hit the ground, I snapped out of my reverie -- the car was rolling downhill, slowing down as every bump killed momentum, but still coming. The fence wouldn't be enough to stop it.

Location[]

This page can be found on a rock near the path leading from the suvenir store to the parking lot.
