    There is only one. I don't remember the actual name.

    There is no actual WORM that turns into flies, because worms don't turn into flies, but there is one parasitic larva.

    Anyways, the fly lays eggs that hatch in the top layer of skin and a larva lives in your skin for a while to keep warm (it doesn't even feed off of you) before it turns into a fly.

    And anyway, that fly is particular is only in south america or one of those scary places.

    The larvae of a bot fly, and there is another similar species in South America, the only ones I know of.
