Scare Dare | comment |
A childhood dare where a group of children explores a location after dark. It will typically involve entering an abandoned house, supposedly haunted, staying in the school for the night, exploring the surroundings of a camp after nightfall, or similar. Of course, there will always be something else there, too. It might be their friends trying to make the test more exciting, or a harmless resident with the Face of a Thug, but it is also a great opportunity to have fun with Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane. If this happens in a horror setting, you're probably better off staying home. It may also prove to be the Call Reception Area or the Forbidden Zone. See also Youth Is Wasted on the Dumb, where the characters tend to be slightly older and the situation tends to be considerably more dangerous, and Straying Baby, where the character is younger and oblivious. Compare Kimodameshi, a similar Japanese tradition. Seen in: |

Squid Girl has eponymous character Ika Musume/Squid Girl go on a Scare Dare with the group from Lemon Beach House and lifeguard Goro on a night hike through the woods. They get separated, and the rest of the group is completely freaked out by Squid Girl's bioluminescence, mistaking it for spirit lights, and run off, leaving Squid Girl alone in the woods at night. Then, she runs into a group of actual ghosts who seem to range all the way from the Warring States Era to fairly modern times, as there is are a few in armor, and at least one surfer. They turn out to be helpful, and direct Squid Girl to the main road home, with her never realizing that they were ghosts, and deciding that some humans were friendly after all. | |

A Dark Champions scenario published by Gold Rush Games started off with a Scare Dare — a young boy is missing after having been dared to walk up to the abandoned Radley Manor after dark and place his hand on the wall. (The coal chute broke under his weight. The kids who dared him believe that the ghost of Radley Manor "got" the boy, and are too afraid of being blamed to tell anyone what happened. The biker gang using the Manor's basement as a meth lab killed the boy.) | |

The My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic episode "Castle Mane-ia" sees Applejack and Rainbow Dash spending the night in the ancient ruins of Princess Celestia and Princess Luna's former castle, which is supposedly haunted by a dark presence called the Pony of Shadows. Most of the spooky things they encounter are just Rarity and Fluttershy scaring them by accident, while the "Pony of Shadows" that keeps tormenting them is actually Pinkie Pie helping give them some scary fun. After the ponies are convinced the Pony of Shadows isn't real, we get to see that it actually is. | |

In Cemetery of Terror, five children head out to the titular cemetery on Halloween night because they were dared to go to the deepest part of the cemetery and count to a hundred before leaving. This puts them straight in the path of an undead serial killer. | |

In "The Berry Beast" in the 2003 Strawberry Shortcake, Huckleberry Pie issues a scare dare to go into some spooky woods. Strawberry replies that dares are silly, so he makes it a double dare, and Strawberry counters that double dares are double silly. He ups it to a Triple Scoop Dare with a strawberry on top and Strawberry says that he's on. | |

Happens in one of the Halloween episodes of Kick Buttowski when Kendall dares Kick and Gunther to trick or treat the Van der Death mansion up on the hill (with convenient lightning) because Kick thinks her Halloween "party" is lame (justified in that all it was, was Kendall reading a report: "The Origins of Halloween. A Report by Kendall Perkins"). Turns out the old lady who lives there loves Halloween so much that she sets up it as a haunted house every year, effectively scaring off every kid in town... which was the opposite of what she wanted. | |
