Since Peach wasn't able to find the location of the next Star Spirit, we'll need to do it ourselves. Fortunately, Mario knows a Fortune Teller who might be able to help. Go to the Merlin's hut to be introduced to Merle, who will tell you the final Star Spirit is being held captive near Shiver City. While no-one knows exactly how to get there, rumour has it there is a doorway underneath Toad Town.

Shiver City is through the Blue Door up above, but there is a shortcut back to Toad Town that might be of interest. Go down the pipe below the door, and blow out the wall with Bombette. Here you will meet a friendly, but possibly suspicious, salesman. It appears he will keep offering you items for 64 coins each. I don't know if these are random, but here's the items I got before running out of coins:

Go back to the Mayor's house in Shiver City, and tell him about the legend Merle told you. He will reveal his own item, a Bucket, although he doesn't know what it used for either.

Take the opportunity to heal up and buy items before leaving the city again. I found myself using a lot of Flower Power in the next section, so you may wish to change your badges or buy items accordingly.

At the end of the top corridor, you can earn yourself a Shooting Star (which is quite handy for defeating Swoopulas). At the end of the bottom level, you'll find a chest with a D-Up-P-Down Badge. If head head back to the main room and out of the 'reflected' main door, you can access a 'reflected' cave containing a star piece.

Go to the location of the Red X and down the new hole. Use Bombette to blow up the door, only to discover a whole host of Duplighosts pretending to be Bombette. The imposters are the ones with extra symbols after their speech - stars, hearts, exclamation marks, and ellipses. In my playthrough, the real Bombette was the one originally standing to the immediate left of Mario.

Go through the gap to find the Red Key in the chest. Head back to the main room, saving on your way past - you're not going to get another chance for a while. Use Tornado Jump to change the switch to the Red Door, and go through it.
