The FBC may not be what it seems

The final DLC expansion for Control release today. AWE brings Alan Wake into the world of Control but the DLC exposes a lot more information that wasn't present in the core campaign.

1. Black Market of Supernatural Objects

Despite the FBC's best efforts, the world of the Supernatural exists and people will notice. What's direr, people selling these objects. Apparently there's a black market for these objects and having world-ending devices like the Slide Projector available for purchase is something you never want. If you thought Umbrella's BOWs are dangerous imagine what would happen if the Fridge from Control was left alone.

2. Artificially Created Altered Objects

The train isn't a natural Altered Object, it's manmade. A terrorist organization created the object by causing the train to crash with dozens of people on board. People died in a horrible fashion and created the Altered Object. The FBC learned of this and got one of them to talk by locking them in a room for 2 days without any food or water. The FBC has throughout the interviews in AWE that they will go to drastic lengths and violate any right to do so to find out who's doing this and stop them.

3. Jesse is Alan's Creation

During the opening chapter, we see Alan typing and that's not good. The reason being that anything Alan types come true and the narration of Alan highly infers that Alan created the entire situation in Control. Seems extremely but those who played Alan Wake know that not even the Dark Presence could violate the written words of Alan's Departure novel. What if the FBC was willed into reality by Alan's words in an effort to stop the Dark Presence. After all, he mentions Jesse by name, someone he never met. We also saw that Thomas Zane, despite being a world-famous poet, wrote himself out of history in Alan Wake. So creating an entire organization and a person doesn't seem so crazy.
