Real name comte Dracula
Le comte Orlock (également orthographié Orlok), est un personnage de fiction créé par Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau et Henrik Galeen en 1922 pour le film Nosferatu le vampire (Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens, 1922) avec Max Schreck qui incarne le comte vampire. Il s'agit en fait du comte Dracula créé par Bram Stoker, dont Albin Grau, producteur du film, a fait changer le nom (et de tous les personnages du roman) pour éviter de payer des droits d'adaptation. Dans le remake de Werner Herzog, Nosferatu, fantôme de la nuit (Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht, 1977), le personnage du vampire interprété par Klaus Kinski reprend le nom du comte Dracula.

Thomas Hutter lives in the fictitious German city of Wisborg. His employer, Knock, sends Hutter to Transylvania to visit a new client named Count Orlok. Hutter entrusts his loving wife Ellen to his good friend Harding and Harding's sister Annie, before embarking on his long journey. Nearing his destination in the Carpathian mountains, Hutter stops at an inn for dinner. The locals become frightened by the mere mention of Orlok's name and discourage him from traveling to his castle at night, warning of a werewolf on the prowl. The next morning, Hutter takes a coach to a high mountain pass, but the coachmen decline to take him any further than the bridge as nightfall is approaching. A black-swathed coach appears after Hutter crosses the bridge and the coachman gestures for him to climb aboard. Hutter is welcomed at a castle by Count Orlok. When Hutter is eating dinner and accidentally cuts his thumb, Orlok tries to suck the blood out, but his repulsed guest pulls his hand away.
