[TOMT] Looking for an animated tv show i watched in the early/mid 2000s with a group of people solving supernatural mysteries and fighting monsters

I will try to be as detailed as possible but I can't remember much. I just hope it's enough. I posted this on the website tvtropes too but haven't had any luck since it's not that active anymore.

I watched a dubbed version somewhere between the early to mid 2000s in Norway on a norwegian childrens channel. I know 100% it's not a norwegian show or I would have found it easily. And I don't know what country it's originally from, unfortunately.

It was an animated show where the main characters fought monsters or other evil creatures. I don't remember how they fought the monsters or even if they had powers. The main guy had pointy hair and sideburns, and wore a brown coat. There was a woman in the group and I think she was the main guys love interest. It's got the same kinda plot as "Martin Mystery" and "Archie's weird mysteries" but it's neither of those. I remember the style was similar to "Extreme ghostbusters" and the main guy (at least in my memory) looked similar to Eduardo from the show. I think the gang was a trio but I don't remember anything about the third guy.

I remember two episodes: The one I remember the best was a witch wanted to take over a town and turned the police into pigs and dogs. One of the main characters got turned into a monkey, and I remember he was sitting on the female main characters shoulders. He still had sideburns and pointy hair. It was night-time when the policemen were turned and the gang was running around in some red-ish caves in the sewers or something.

The second episode I don't remember that well, but the female main character got turned into a doll and she was trapped in a wagon with other people turned into dolls or toys. They could walk around and talk to each other. I believe a traveling toymaker had kidnapped them. The female mc got turned when trying to find the missing people and ended up a victim like them. And the others are looking for her. I think she had blue hair, especially as the doll version but I can't remember what her human version looked like.

I feel like I've scoured the internet and this is my last hope, or I might have to accept that maybe I've dreamt the whole thing up lol but it felt too real to be a figment of my imagination

Trinket hunt

Hey! This is a tourism question, but it's kinda specific so I hope it's okay to post here! (Sorry if it's not ToT just trying my luck lol)

My friend and I are going to Budapest this september, and we both love shopping for tiny trinkets and bits and bobs. So I was wondering if there are any shops in Budapest that specialises in this? Examples are tiny animal figurines, pottery and just overall cute travel sized stuff!

Usually when I travel I always find trinket shop gems but it takes a while to plan around it, so I thought I would get ahead of myself and post here, in case any locals know about the type of shop I'm looking for!

I have tried searching around on the wide web, but all I get are those typical tourist trap kiosks (which we will also be visiting)
