Scooby Gang, assemble - a singalong screening of Buffy the Vampire Slayer's hit musical episode is returning to Manchester this month.

TV and film-themed bar Fab Cafe on Portland Street is showing the cult TV show's season six classic, Once More With Feeling, over the August bank holiday weekend after its sell-out success last year.

The Emmy-nominated episode sees a tap-dancing demon cast a spell on Sunnydale, causing everyone in the town to sing and dance - until they start to combust.

Written and scored by series creator Joss Whedon, it won critical acclaim when it first aired in the UK in 2002 and the soundtrack was later released as an album.

Buffy celebrated its 20th anniversary earlier this year, with critics looking back on it as a watershed moment in genre TV.

Whedon’s internet musical mini-series Dr Horrible will also be screened at the event , which takes place on Saturday August 26 from 4pm until late.

Organisers Niche Nights are promising 'another amazing night of geekery' with fancy dress, DJs, a quiz, drinks offers and stalls.

Entry costs £3 and there will be discounts to Manchester Pride-goers when they show their Big Weekend wristband.
