Burial Masks… Redeads wear them, Danpe is knowledgeable about them. I think that the burial masks were some kind of ancient ritual to send off the dead. Those masks were placed onto the corpses before being buried as some kind of ancient, Kakariko burial ritual. Danpe is unimpressed because he’s curious as to why someone alive would be wearing an ancient, burial mask. Why does CZcams never let you post a single comment without an edit. It’s a personal goal at this point.

Burial masks are intriguing... They're found throughout history, across multiple lands. Ranging in materials from: wood, to stone, sometimes metal. And even, clay or porcelain.

I love how when you show them the mask of truth, they point blank say "That's the ugliest max ever... please take this and never wear that again..." They also attack the bunny hood, but that may be because rabbits eat plants and they see you as a threat.
I remember wearing all the masks and reaching Zelda just for her reactions. My favourite one was the Goron mask because it makes her laugh and say how it makes your head look big. I wish the game had more moments like that showing that the princess is still just a silly kid.
ReDeads also wear these masks which means we can infer that the mask is likely some kind of burial mask. Though possibly an outdated one, since (with the exception of the ones in the Castle Town Ruins) we only see ReDeads in long abandoned tombs or temples, meaning they are presumably very old corpses that have reanimated. If the mask is old and outdated that would also explain why Dampe, the gravedigger, is the only one who actually knows it's a burial mask, while other Hylian adults don't seem to take any particular notice of that fact.
If you like the topic of masks in Japanese culture, I might recommend Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse. It's a horror game, but there's plenty of things for you to read about ceremonial masks and such. It's mostly fake stuff for the game, but it still gives you an idea of how they are considered in older Japanese culture. I thought it was cool.
