This Zelda: Ocarina of Time guide details how to find the character who will buy the Skull Mask and complete its sale for the Happy Mask Shop. You will need to travel from Hyrule Castle Town to the Lost Woods, find the right character, and then return to the shop to pay the remaining amount.
Forest Skull Mask Guide – Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Start by visiting the Happy Mask Shop in the upper right section of Hyrule Castle Town. The Skull Mask is the second mask available to you.
When you check its description, you will be told to find someone who lives in a forest and sell the mask to them. Your destination is the Lost Woods, where you can find the character who wants to buy it.
Leave Castle Town and make your way back to Kokiri Forest, the village where your adventure originally began.
Once you reach the forest, make your way to the upper section of the map. Look for the vines on the left side and climb them to reach the higher area. Continue across until you find the entrance to the Lost Woods.
Enter the Lost Woods and immediately take the path on your left. This will lead you to the character you need to find.
Before selling the mask, you can interact with the character and play Saria’s Song on your instrument.
The correct sequence is:
R → A → Y → R → A → Y
He will respond to the song and reward you. Once that interaction is complete, equip the Skull Mask and speak to him again. He will notice the mask, show interest in it, and jump down towards you. After speaking with him, he will offer to purchase it for 10 rupees.
Accept the offer to complete the sale. However, keep in mind that you originally owe the Happy Mask Shop 20 rupees, so selling the mask for 10 means you will actually lose 10 rupees overall.
After selling the mask, travel back to Hyrule Castle Town and return to the Happy Mask Shop.
The shop is only accessible during the daytime. If it is nighttime when you arrive, play Sun’s Song to change the time.
Use this sequence:
R → X → A → R → X → A
Once it becomes daytime, enter the shop and speak with the owner. Pay him the remaining 20 rupees to complete your Skull Mask transaction.
