MANHATTAN UNDER SIEGE

Manhattan has been plagued by unexplained supernatural occurrences, prompting the Federal Bureau of Control (FBC) to release a video secretly leaked by an anonymous source. The video, taken on Thomas Street, shows figures levitating and surrounded by a red light emanating from skyscraper windows. Former FBC employees claim these incidents are caused by the Hiss, a hostile paranormal entity threatening the population of NYC.
Witnesses report seeing the phenomenon firsthand, describing red appearing everywhere, people floating and making strange noises, and a woman being lifted off the ground before fleeing. Emergency calls and hospital visits spiked during the event, with local hospitals treating hysteria and injuries from stampedes of onlookers. Despite these accounts, the FBC denies the Hiss's presence and attributes the sightings to mass hysteria causing hallucinations.
Eyewitness Michael Bamber and deputy administrator Cherry Connor reject the FBC's explanation, calling it "bullshit." The FBC encourages anyone who witnessed the events to contact IGN. The story concludes with a promotion for the action-adventure RPG "CONTROL Resonant," set in a Manhattan on the brink of paranormal annihilation.
