THE SCANNAN EXHIBITION 2024 The Chuck Gallery Manchester

What do you do when you begin to see and hear things other people can’t? Where you begin to witness a world in which the boundaries of life and death are obscured, and dominated by a powerful presence? When you find yourself in the company of those who march to the beat of a different drum?

This part of my story begins in 2000, when I co-wrote a book called Scannan, a paranormal psychological thriller. The book tells the story of a man who descends into madness after his business partner commits suicide. It’s centred amongst the cluster of marketing companies based around Manchester. The idea for it came to me in a series of dreams. Since its publication, however, I’ve had the feeling that a large part of the story was missing.
