- — In-game description
The Garo's Mask is one of the twenty-four masks Link can collect in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. This mask, shaped like the head of a Garo Robe is obtained after Link defeats the Gorman Brothers in a horse race. Believing that he is just a simple child, the Brothers present him with the Mask, thinking that he could do no possible harm with it. The Gorman Brothers also have Garo's Masks of their own that they use as disguises, namely when pursing Cremia on her milk delievery trips to Clock Town.
According to Pamela's Father, Garo's Masks were traditionally worn by an enemy nation that was sent to spy on the Royal Family of Ikana. This nation is long since gone by the time Link is in Termina, but the undead enemies still wander around the premises of Ikana, unseen by all living beings. When one is nearby, Tatl will sense its presence looming around her and Link, though she can't see it. If Link dons the Garo's Mask at this time, the nearby Garo will materialize, thinking that he is one of them.
It should be noted that without the Garo's Mask, Link will not be allowed to enter the land of Ikana at all. The mysterious Poe Salesman will only allow him to proceed if he is wearing the Garo's Mask making it one of three compulsory normal masks needed to finish the game.
When worn, the Garo's Mask causes ReDeads to dance. This function is shared by the Gibdo Mask and the Captain's Hat.
