The '''Gold Skulltula''', also known as the '''Spider of the Curse''',{{Ref|OoT|647|[[Navi]]}} is an enemy and is part of an optional side quest from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''. Being able to be defeated with a multitude of weapons, a Gold Skulltula gives [[Link]] a [[Gold Skulltula Token]] when defeated.


Hookshot
In both games, a Gold Skulltula will make a rustling noise when nearby. They act just like normal wall [[Skulltula]]s from ''Ocarina of Time'' except that they do not move from their spot on the wall. They also take twice as many hits to defeat as the normal Skulltula.

The Gold Skulltula is an enemy and a completely optional sidequest from both ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''. When defeated, a Gold Skulltula will drop a token proving that you killed it. These tokens are used to break the curse placed on various people living inside the House of Skulltulas and the two spider houses.
There are a total of 100 Gold Skulltulas scattered throughout [[Hyrule]]. Their tokens will help to break the curse put on the [[Cursed Rich Family]] living in the [[House of Skulltula]]. After they are defeated, Gold Skulltula Tokens can be collected with the [[Boomerang]] or [[Hookshot]].

===Majora's Mask===
As with many enemies in ''Majora's Mask'', Gold Skulltulas are identical to the ones in ''Ocarina of Time''. The only difference between them is that Gold Skulltulas in ''Majora's Mask'' can only be found in spider houses. There are two of these houses found in the game; the [[Swamp Spider House]], and the [[Oceanside Spider House]]. Each of these have 30 Skulltulas each. After defeating all 30 Skulltulas in a spider house, the man at the entrance has been revived of his curse and will give you a gift. The item in question varies depending on what day you finish.

The Gold Skulltula, also known as the Spider of the Curse,[1] is an enemy and is part of an optional side quest from Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask. Being able to be defeated with a multitude of weapons, a Gold Skulltula gives Link a Gold Skulltula Token when defeated.

In both games, a Gold Skulltula will make a rustling noise when nearby. They act just like normal wall Skulltulas from Ocarina of Time except that they do not move from their spot on the wall. They also take twice as many hits to defeat as the normal Skulltula.
