Facehugger is a Xenomorph life-cycle organism from Aliens: Incubation, serving as the parasitic stage that attaches to a host and implants an embryo. It is not a human-style named character with a first and last name, but a creature defined by its role in the Alien species’ reproduction cycle. In the series, it functions as a major threat and a key horror element, driving tension through infection, body horror, and the danger of unseen alien reproduction.
