Template:Dungeons The Oceanside Spider House is a place found in Majora's Mask.

The place is located near the Fisherman's house in the Great Bay Coast. It's full of Gold Skulltulas that have cast a curse upon this place. In order to get to the inner part of the Spider House, the entrance must be blown up using bombs (and the Hookshot is required to proceed further).

The man who is looking for shelter

The Oceanside Spider House bears a greater resemblance to an actual house than its Southern Swamp counterpart, the Swamp Spider House, albeit a very abandoned one, full of storage boxes and cobwebs. There is a great library located on the top floor, although some number of books are missing from the shelves, allowing Link to climb them. The library and what is presumably a dining room are inhabited by several Stalchildren; by speaking to them using the Captain's Hat, it is revealed that they are under orders to explore the house, attempting to uncover any supposed "secrets" inside;[1] whether they are referring to treasure, the house's lone Piece of Heart, or something else entirely is unknown, but the six of them together reveal the order in which four masks in the dining room should be shot in order to reveal the aforementioned Piece of Heart through their own respective dialogs.

Possibly the most intriguing mystery surrounding the Oceanside Spider House is the presence of pictures of Skull Kid within the house. It is never elaborated on as to why these pictures are here, nor even referenced by anyone within the house, even Tatl. The only purpose they serve is to be shot down to potentially reveal another Gold Skulltula.

Once the 30 Gold Skulltulas are slain and their spirits collected, a man will appear at the entrance who will thank Link for killing the spiders and ask if he can have the house. He can be witnessed appearing if the player saves one of the spiders in the first room until last. Assuming that it's still the First Day, Link will be rewarded with the Giant Wallet. On the Second Day, he will merely receive a Purple Rupee, and on the Final Day, the reward is simply a Red Rupee. The man wants to use the Oceanside Spider House as a shelter from the falling moon.[2]
