Maggots is the name of the strange little worm from the animate stop-motion film Tim Burton's Corpse Bride. He lives inside the dead bride's head, often giving her advice which she often ignores. For example, when Maggots suspects that the character Victor is abandoning her, he says inside her head, "I have a bad feeling about that boy. He--" But before he can continue, the Corpse Bride knocks him out of his ear and says, "Go chew someone else's ear for a while.". And yet he still goes back into the dead bride's ear.
