Count Von Count

Name: Count Von Count Age: "written to represent an adult with the psychological age of someone who is 1,832,652 years old -- and still counting." Although, in a 2017 video for Wired, the Count says he's six-million-five-hundred-twenty-three-thousand-seven-hundred-twenty-eight years... Sex: Male Species: Vampire, puppet. Height: 32 inches - 82 cm Role: Puppet in a Kids Show in Sesame Street.

The Count's main role in the show is to educate children about simple mathematical concepts, most notably, as his name implies, counting. The Count loves counting so much that he often will count anything and everything, regardless of size or amount, and the other characters can sometimes be quite annoyed by this.

He will count anything and everything, regardless of size, amount, or how much annoyance he causes others around him. In one song, he stated that he sometimes even counts himself. When he finishes counting, The Count laughs and announces his total (which sometimes appears on screen). This finale is usually accompanied by a crash of thunder and a flash of lightning, even on sunny days.

In Season 6, for example, he once prevented Ernie from answering a telephone because he wanted to continue counting the number of times the telephone rang. At another time, while serving as an elevator operator, he refused to let Kermit the Frog get out at his selected floor so he could count every floor in the building.

The Count can occasionally lose his temper when somebody or something interrupts his counting, or feel sad when there is nothing around for him to count, but apart from these, he is typically portrayed as being friendly and cheerful.

The Count dresses himself in a black suit with white and black spat shoes. He drapes himself in a green cape with a triangular collar and colorful patterns inside. He has slick black hair (similar to the Legosi's Dracula) with a long goatee. He also wears a monocle over right eye.

Unlike other vampires, The Count seems to not have a weakness to sunlight as he is almost always seen out in the day light talking among his friends and neighbors on Sesame Street.

The Count lives in an old cobweb-infested castle which he shares with many bats and a cat named Fatatita. He spent his childhood in the Carpathian Mountains, which makes it clear he is Romanian. Perhaps not surprising, he speaks in an accent from that area of the world. His pet bats tend to have Slavic names, such as Grisha, Misha, Sasha, and Tatiana. He views the bats as his "children" and sometimes counts them. As a running gag, his castle has a squeaky door, which visitors always point out, only for the Count to instantly change the subject to his counting addiction.

Informations and curiositys!

 - He speak in an Eastern European accent and pronouncing his Vs as Ws)
 - He laugh sound like a literal "ah ah ah!" followed with a thunder.
 - When asked his favorite number he always says "sewen!" (seven) first, then "No.. Twenty!" and then he starts shaking his head and freaking out saying "AAhh! I love all the numbers..! This is so hard!"
 - In this same interview, some children also ask the puppets what their favorite food is! Elmo says spaghetti, Oscar says sardines, and Count says a dry "Uh..... Pass." making the hosts laugh. He probably skips this question so he doesn't have to say "blood". I mean, he's a puppet on a children's program for children aged 1 to 10, he can't say these things.
 - Count always tries to disguise how "unfriendly" it is for him to be a vampire. In the same interview, a child asks him why he has such huge fangs compared to the other puppets, and he deflects the answer by saying, "Well, the question is why Elmo doesn't have any teeth." This phrase distracts everyone, causing him to evade the question.
 - He often gives up on the conversation, runs away from it, or just goes completely silent when asked something he doesn't want to deal with or answer. Like questions about whether he's actually a REAL vampire, or invasive, nsfw, and non-friendly questions.
 - Other questions in the interview are about what puppets like to do, and he says "This may be shocking.. But I like bowling." This gets a gasp and genuine surprise from everyone, he makes so much stuff about counting numbers that we forget he can do other things and like other things. They judge him and ask him what's the point and he says overwhelmed "I'm a person.. I-I'M A COMPLEX BEAST!".
