So people stop wondering who I am. stare

Hoggle is a dwarf who is a resident of Jareth's Labyrinth. He has various odd jobs, such as exterminating fairies, and collects shiny objects.

Although at first he acts callously toward Sarah, when she tricks him into helping her through the labyrinth, they develop a budding friendship, and soon Hoggle finds that he has to overcome his cowardice and choose between that friendship and his fear-induced loyalty to the Goblin King.

Hoggle is also terrified of the Bog of Eternal Stench, which makes it Jareth's most effective threat against him.

In the film, people often have difficulty remembering Hoggle's name, and so the character is referred to as Higgle, Hogwart, Hedgewart, and Hogbrain.

The full-bodied Hoggle puppet is currently on display at the Unclaimed Baggage Center in Scottsboro, Alabama.
