Majoras Mask (Happy Mask Salesman)

Personally, I think Majoras Mask is the darkest and most twisted zelda game out there. Besides having trouble beating it, the Happy Mask Salesman (HMS for short) is really creepy. I was wondering what people think about the HMS, I have plenty of theories (Also if you have tips on how to beat the game with all the masks that would help too ^.^)

I thought it was really cool how you could bring a mask to him and he would tell you about it.
ever tried that?

^yeah i kinda enjoy doing that.

Oh yeah, I've done that. Its cool your right. Whats you favorite mask

He's creeped me out for ages aswell. Like, it seems like he's trying to help you out but at the same time, something just doesn't sit right with me when he's around. There's alot more to him then he lets on I believe..and he just makes me feel unsettled. I just wonder if that was all intentional or what..

Yeah, there's something just not right about that guy. I think he knows more than he lets on, like he has mysterious powers or something...

Personally I think he's an escaped patient from a lunatic asylum. That's my theory.

Yeah. "You did... get the mask........ WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME?!?!"
Anyone else notice that he has the same laugh as Vaati?

Hahaha yeah I know! I love his insane face when he goes mad like that

Omg you're right, he does...

The Happy Mask Salesman re-imagined in Majora's Mask is one of my favorite NPCs in any video game. Ironically enough he's also been my avatar for a few years now too.

Anyway, I mostly enjoyed checking out all the masks on his backpack. Providing some not so subtle cameos.

There is a theory that the HMS is Shigeru Miyamoto. If so, that would explain his vast knowledge and the fact that there is a Mario mask on his pack.

Where did you hear such a theory?

It sounds like something I read on Encyclopedia Dramatica.
DON'T JUDGE ME.

That's because it IS on Encyclopedia Dramatica...

I've always thought the HMS was cool. The Happy Mask Salesman was one of the freakiest characters ever displayed in a Zelda game. It's a shame they didn't make a cameo of him in TWW or TP. Or did they..?

Oh yeah, and a tip for getting all the masks; Use a walkthrough.
I don't think there's any other way to find out how to get the All-night Mask..
At least I had a hard time finding out how to get it.

No. What looks like Shigeru Miyamoto was when you played the Elegy of Emptiness as normal Link

I remember in the game when the Happy Mask Salesman choked Link to death and was very reminiscent of Linebeck xD

But before that it looked like he was raping Link and to make it even worse the game dialogue said something like:

"OH! OH! OH! OH! OH! OH! YOU GOT IT! YOU GOT IT! YOU GOT IT! YOU GOT IT!"

And to leave it at its worst, Link was only like 10 years old xD

Hahahahahaha!! I never thought of it like that before, but you're right! He did get a little...er...over-excited

And there you have it. The Happy Mask Salesman is into kids. He clearly loves them.

Who buys more masks than kids? And why else would he send them running around doing things for him, then play with their helpless bodies "out of joy"? It's win-win for him. If the kid dies on the adventure, he gets a kid's corpse (insert fantasies here). If the kids make it back, he's "overjoyed" and knocks them around like they're his play things.

The Happy Mask Salesman, man. Keep your kids away.
