The Happy Mask Shop is located in Hyrule Castle Town Market, to the right of the path to the castle. The shop itself does not sell masks; rather, it lends them to aspiring individuals for sale. If a mask is sold, you pay back the price of the mask but get to keep any extra rupees, and are granted access to a newer mask model to sell. You can borrow masks you have already sold again; however, you can sell each model of mask only once. Masks are event items, and you can carry only one mask at a time. To see if someone is interested in purchasing a mask, talk to them while wearing it.

The Masks

Wearing masks while speaking to people can elicit different responses.

Zelda OOT Keatonmask.jpgKeaton Mask - This popular mask is modelled after the wily keaton fox. Sell it to the Hylian guard by the Death Mountain gate in Kakariko Village.

Zelda OOT Skullmask.jpgSkull Mask - This monstrous mask will make you look like a Skull Kid. Sell it the lost kid in the lost woods that is on the tree-trunk (not the trunk where there are two kids).

Zelda OOT Spookymask.jpgSpooky Mask - This scary mask is similar to a ReDead's face. Sell it to the kid in the graveyard.

Zelda OOT Bunnyhood.jpgBunny Hood - Some people believe that these bunny ears will make you run faster and jump higher. When worn at night, no monsters will appear in Hyrule Field. Sell it to the guy running around Lon Lon Ranch. Note, you must defeat Barinade before selling the last mask.

Zelda OOT Goronmask.jpgGoron Mask - A mask that looks like a Goron.

Zelda OOT Zoramask.jpgZora Mask - A mask that looks like a Zora.

Bunny Hood Bonanza
The man who buys the bunny hood pays Rupees until your wallet is completely full, so you should buy some items, play some minigames, and get the largest wallet before selling him the Bunny Hood.
  1. Keaton Mask: This is the first mask you can borrow from the Happy Mask Shop. Take it to Kakariko Village and wear it while talking to the guard protecting the gate to Death Mountain. He will buy the ten rupee mask for fifteen rupees, and you will be able to borrow the Skull Mask.
  2. Skull Mask: After obtaining this mask, enter the Lost Woods from Kokiri Forest and go left. Put on the mask, stand on the stump, and talk to the Skull Kid. He will only give you 10 rupees for the 20 rupee mask, but you will now be able to borrow the Spooky Mask. Also, if you play Saria's Song , he will give you a piece of heart. Note: This is also a good time to head to the Forest Stage detailed below.
  3. Spooky Mask: During the day, go to the Kakariko Graveyard and show the kid there the Spooky Mask. He will buy it at full price for thirty rupees.
  4. Bunny Hood: After borrowing the Bunny Hood and beating the Jabu Jabu dungeon, there will be a man running laps around the outside of Lon Lon Ranch during the day, so follow him until he stops, then talk to him while wearing the Bunny Hood. He will give you all his money for the mask, granting you access to the Mask of Truth, Gerudo Mask, Goron Mask, and Zora Mask.

The Forest Stage

Any time you have a new mask, drop by the Forest Stage. From the Kokiri Forest entrance, take a left (right if you're facing the entrance). You'll see a pool of water ahead. Take a left. Take another left. Here you find a meadow with a couple of Business Scrubs. There's a tree at the back. There to the left of the tree is a group of butterflies hovering around the same general area. Walk around this area (to the right of the butterflies when facing towards the meadow from the entrance) until you fall through a hole. You've arrived at the Forest Stage. Note: you can acquire these at any time, and in any order.

Put on a mask and approach the front of the stage (the raised portion with the sign on it). Many scrubs will pop up and dance around you joyfully. Walk over to the larger, older Scrub on the right. He will reward you with something, depending on the mask that you are wearing.

Forest Stage Rewards

Before you collect the Poacher's Saw in Gerudo Valley, use the Mask of Truth at the Forest Stage. There is a glitch in earlier versions of the game that stops the Deku upgrade after getting the Poacher's Saw.
