From a Buffy nostalgia-fest to an immersive nature-inspired environment, check out these picks of things to do in February

In our house we have a tradition of giving each other a book for Valentine’s Day - your suggestions of well written folklore/nature/art/overlooked fiction books would be very welcome in the comments. But if you are looking for a more expensive gift for a loved one then you can’t go wrong with tickets for one of the shows listed below.

If you prefer a giggle to romance then the Royal Court in Liverpool is offering a Valentine’s Day special for Haunted Scouse - show, dinner, drinks and chocolates for two at £75. But if you’re single and nostalgic for the 90s, you might want to relive lusting after Spike from Buffy and the Vampire in Brendan Murphy’s new one-man show touring to Manchester.
