Simple. It attaches itself to someone's face.
Usually Nightmare Fuel from some horror film.
May be related to Face Full of Alien Wingwong.
Examples:
Comics
- The mind-control starfish of Starro the Conqueror.
Film
- The xenomorphs from Alien. Many later examples are homages.
Toys
- Krana and Krana-Kal of Bionicle.
Video Games
- Gligar and Gliscor from Pokémon.
- Metroids
- Headcrabs from the Half Life saga.
- Brainsuckers from X-COM Armageddon, which are used as ammunition by certain aliens in addition to appearing on their own.
Web Comics
- In Campus Safari, Chrome's miniwhip Aurla does a good impression of one. (Played for laughs)
- Sam Starfall pulls one of these off in an early strip of Cross Time Cafe. Hortmage finds it irritating and, maybe, disgusting.
