Famed writer Stephen King granted Remedy the rights to use his infamous quote that opens the original Alan Wake for the nominal sum of just $1.

"Creating the original Alan Wake, I really, really desperately wanted a quote from him to start it off," Lake told Eurogamer's Chris Tapsell in an interview this month at Summer Game Fest."It's my understanding he wanted $1 for us to get the rights to use it. [It was] so very generous." Alan Wake and its sequel feature numerous nods to King throughout - alongside other influences such as the works of HP Lovecraft, and the TV shows Twin Peaks and The Twilight Zone.
