Dare is a short horror film on the PaulWesNick channel. Uploaded on October 14, 2014, it is the second school project to be uploaded to the channel. It stars Chris Smith, Braiden Hook, Quentin DeVeirman, and Kyle Smith. It was written by Chris and Braiden for their speech class project, and was directed and edited by Nick Geoghegan.
Plot[edit | edit source]
Chris, Braiden, and Quentin sit around at a table together. They are playing truth or dare. Chris dares Braiden to ding dong ditch the Henderson house, stating that "nobody ever comes back alive".
As the group approaches the home, Quentin is having doubts. Even Braiden is apprehensive. But Chris goads him on, and he rings the doorbell. Chris and Braiden take off, but Quentin stays on the porch and taunts them. The door creaks open however, and Braiden tells Chris to run while he gets Quentin to safety. As Braiden carries Quentin away from the porch, he trips on a low wall and crushes him. With his arm broken, Braiden leaves Quentin to die. Quentin tries to escape, but is pulled back by Mr. Henderson.
The two run across a field, but Chris trips, telling Braiden to leave without him. Chris struggles to get up, and Henderson catches up with him. The two fight, and it appears that Chris has the advantage, but a soccer ball suddenly hits him in the face, and it is implied that that somehow killed him.
Braiden is in tears as he runs across the field. When he finally crosses the field, he finds that a gate blocks the way off the field. He slumps to the ground, and screams as Mr. Henderson catches up to him and murders him with a sharp stick.

Production[edit | edit source]
Despite being uploaded in October of 2014, the video was made almost a year earlier, in late November of 2013, for Braiden and Chris' speech project.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Both Wes and Nick have called it their least favorite video on the channel.
- The original ending (written by Braiden) would have involved him running into a pool deck, and hiding there, before being drowned by Mr. Henderson. It was rejected for being too graphic and too difficult to film safely.
- Kyle makes three hidden appearances in the video.
- The ending credits feature a song sung by Braiden and Quentin, and the end logos include a credit for a studio called 'Furry Friends Productions'.
Mistakes
- At 0:51, you can hear Kyle scream in the background, despite his character not being introduced yet.
- At 1:53, you can hear Nick say "action".
- During the fight scene, you can easily hear Kyle making impact noises with his mouth. (Real professional)
- Braiden's screams as he is murdered are a repeat of the same scream three times.
