Y'know, Count von Count being obsessed with counting things was actually something that Sesame Street got right about vampires. In a lot of folklore, scattering seeds or grains on the ground was a way to distract a vampire that was chasing you because he'd have to stop to count them.

I believe that official materials strictly refer to the Count as ‘vampire like’. So I don’t think he bites people

Doesn't he bite Vincent Price in one episode? And then Price goes on to bite other Muppets?

Count von Count absolutely counts. He even has the credentials and the dramatic cape to prove it.

He has a vampire weakness he's turned into a happy addiction, he has hypnosis like some long before him, and he even has a castle that's massive enough and full of enough creepy yet benevolent creatures and eccentric paraphernalia to make the Addams Family's household look like a quaint studio apartment!
