The Curiosity Shop is an interesting store found in the West Clock Town area of Majora's Mask. The shop is run by the Curiosity Shop Guy. The Curiosity Shop is interesting in that it opens only later at night, most likely because the store has no problem in selling stolen merchandise. The shop opens at 10 p.m., and closes later on near dawn. It's also interesting in that it's one of few stores that will purchase certain items from Link.

The store also has a second "employee" of sorts. The Takkuri near the Termina Field entrance to Milk Road will swoop down to steal items from passers-by, and will drop them off at the Curiosity Shop to be sold to anyone who wants it.

The back room of the Curiosity Shop is home to none other than an escaped Kafei. He stays there until he can figure out how to undo the curse layed upon him by Skull Kid.
