Count von Count

Count von Count (The Count) - In addition to Ernie and Bert, recognizable humanoid Muppets appearing on the show include Count von Count, a friendly and harmless, but number-obsessed vampire based on Bela Lugosi's interpretation of Count Dracula. The Count has been confirmed to be of Indian descent, explaining the love of numbers as his being directly related to Aryabhata. He was portrayed by Jerry Nelson from 1972 to 2012 before his death, and by Matt Vogel from 2013 to present.
