Found this in the house on a pillow. I’ve had 2 people tell me they’ve seen these before but neither knows what it is. Thank you for any help!

Snakefly larva…

Thank you SO much!!
(I particularly appreciate knowing that it's a helper bug-considering that I found it inside, which considering how much time I've spent in the woods and garden, should not be a surprise)
