Early in Mina The Hollower, you may have noticed some strange blue torches. These are Poppit’s shops, little puppet guys selling a handful of collectables, namely three wisps and three Kears, all for a very low price. Buying their stock is worth doing, as at least one of them is a top pick for the best Mina the Hollower Trinkets you should equip when possible. There is a catch, but we won’t spoil what that is just yet.
In each Mina the Hollower Poppit Shop location, your goal to finish one of the open-world game’s easier feats to get an achievement is to find all three and clear their stock. The other thing to note is that all three are in an area directly connected to Ossex, the main settlement that’s home to a smithy selling a bunch of Mina The Hollower weapon upgrades, as well as a host of other secrets. However, we’re focusing here on all three Poppit Shop locations, so let’s crack on.
Poppit Shop Locations
Eastern Heath: Grassland
- Inventory: Willow the Wisp (400 Bones) and Kear (200 Bones)
In the screen with two grindy gears and a bat, just after the room where two zappers are shooting at you as you cross a pit, look at the fence at the bottom. There is a strange set of blue torches and a gap in the fence. Go through this gap and enter the tunnel. Go east, and you’ll find Poppit. Buy everything he has to sell before moving on.
Western Wilds: Molten Factory
- Inventory: Helio the Wisp (400 Bones) and Kear (200 Bones)
Enter through one of the two side doors (not the middle one) into the foundry and clear the debris in the top right corner. Dive into the hole and make your way to the northwest corner. Head north until you find the diggable ground and lava. Head west while lighting up your path. Use the lava to blow up the crystals and reveal the Poppit shop in the northwest corner of the Molten Factory. Grab everything from this shop if you can, as it’s a bit of a pain to get to normally.
Southern Outskirts: Commons
- Inventory: Keri the Wisp (500 Bones) and Kear (300 Bones)
After navigating the Cave Network to reach the stairs on the right side, head south and defeat the enemies on the path west. You’ll see a puff plant near a house. Dig underneath and launch the plant west so that you can bounce up to the ledge south of you. When you reach this location, lower the rope so you can easily come back later. Continue east, and there is a familiar set of blue torches. Dig through and follow the path to the Poppit Shop.
Buy everything in this last shop, and you’ll meet Poppit for real and learn a dance. Dancing doesn’t really do anything that we’re aware of, but it’s required to achieve a 100% completion rate. Once you have the dance steps down, you can escape using the blocks underneath each of the three holes to determine where you end up, as a method of fast travel.
