House of Skulltula

The is a location in.

Features and Overview
The House of Skulltula is a gray building located in the southeast part of Kakariko Village. According to an Professor Shikashi, the extremely rich family who used to live within became cursed due to their greed. When Link first enters the house, he finds it is inhabited by the Cursed Rich Man and his five sons who have taken the shape of Skulltulas due to the curse bestowed upon them by the Spiders of the Curse. The Cursed Rich Man goes on to explain that the only way their curse will be lifted is if all of the Gold Skulltulas around Hyrule are destroyed and if their Gold Skulltula Token is collected.

The house is bare and covered by cobwebs in the original game. In Ocarina of Time 3D, ruined furniture can be found as well as a fireplace, a book with the Sheikah symbol and various portraits of spiders.

The Cursed Rich Man persuades Link to help them by promising the young hero great riches if he and his sons are all freed from their curse. As such, Link must set out and seek out 100 Gold Skulltula Tokens to restore the family back to its former state. The young hero will earn their grateful awards each time he destroys a certain amount of Gold Skulltulas.

Once Link has collected all 100 Gold Skulltula Tokens, all the family members will return back to their original form, and the Rich Man will award the young hero with a Huge Rupee worth 200 Rupees. Link can receive as many Huge Rupees as he wants each time he leaves the house and returns to talk to the Rich Man.

Trivia

 * It is possible to strike any of the cursed family members with the Sword in their back. This will result in them crying in pain and getting stunned for a moment. When they are no longer stunned, they will spin around once. If Link approaches them, they will attack him. After that, they revert to normal. Leaving the house and then re-entering also returns any of them back to their normal behavior.
 * Similarly to the rich family cursed by the Skulltula, in, Link must save a man named Jovani who has sold his soul to the Poes for untold riches. Link can also lift the curse by obtaining 60 Poe Souls.
