History time: In the original folklore, most vampires were peasants little different from the people they preyed upon, with the occasional blatant walking corpse among them. A succession of nineteenth century authors — Polidori, Rymer, Le Fanu, and ultimately Stoker — made them elegant aristocrats, whose attractiveness and dignified bearing disguised an inner corruption. And we all know what happened since.
In 1920, a team of German filmmakers had a great idea. Since the German Expressionist movement was all about stylization, why not apply this to vampires? Why not create a vampire that looks the part of a monster, in this case like a humanoid plague rat? And so, Nosferatu got made, and very nearly destroyed.
But Nosferatu's title character, Orlok, played by scary-ass stage actor Max Schreck, has become one of the most iconic vampires ever, and has spawned a flock of imitators, typically used as a contrast to the elegant, pretty vampires, who for some reason are more likely to be treated sympathetically, or at least respectfully.
In order to qualify as a character who Looks Like Orlok, they must possess some combination of the following:
Completely bald, or with very little hair
Sharply pointed ears, often inhumanly large
Hooked nose
Claws, especially if they're long and talon-like
Creepy Long Fingers
Incisors as fangs instead of or in addition to canines (like an actual vampire bat).
Skin that's either extremely pale or a cold unnatural color
Standing or walking hunched over, if not a full hunchback
Long, heavy coat, ideally with oversize lapels
Surprisingly, Orlok's look is not that far off from how Dracula himself is described (in the early chapters, before he regains his youth, anyway), where he's also described as a pallid, balding man with pointed ears and an aquiline nose. So although this design is sometimes seen as a radical departure from the "conventional" vampire, it's actually a lot Truer to the Text - both Stoker's novel and the older folklore - than you might expect.
A form of Our Vampires Are Different; see also Classical Movie Vampire (resembling Bela Lugosi, who codified the look). Compare Looks Like Cesare and Lorre Lookalike (for characters based on classic German Expressionist horror films) and Feral Vampires for similarly outwardly monstrous vampires. Also known for their Pivotal Wake-up.

Count Orlok appears in Mary Shelley's Frankenhole alongside Dracula. He's a mute, so whenever he talks, title cards pop up along with the sound of a dramatic piano.

The Watchmen/Dracula Fusion Fic Bram Stoker's Ozymandias features a vampiric version of Adrian Veidt who looks a bit like this (though with pointed canines instead of incisors, a full head of hair even if it's a bit thin, and an age-related stoop rather than a real hump) before he regenerates to his handsome, canon form.

The playable and NPC vampires in Might and Magic VIII aren't quite close enough to fit (they've got the pointy ears, but their other inhuman traits, like their gray skin and red eyes, aren't on the Orlok list). The hostile vampires, on the other hand, add in baldness, longer fangs that seem to be closer to the front teeth and fingers that are longer enough that it is noticeable when they slash at you with them (they also have bat-like wings along their arms).

American Horror Story: Double Feature: The Pale Ones are people who took the Muse in hopes that it would enhance their artistic talents, only for them to turn out to be naturally talentless. As a result, they've mutated into bald, feral albinos who have twitchy body language and are driven only by a need to feed on blood.

Nadja in Blood Red Sky is a woman infected with vampirism who takes regular treatments to prevent a full Viral Transformation. At the start of the film, her hair has already fallen out, forcing her to wear a wig. When she finds herself in a "Die Hard" On a Plane scenario and gets shot trying to protect her son, she fully transforms into a vampire, with her ears turning pointy, her eyes changing color, and her mouth filling up with gigantic fangs.

The Prince of Lies in Angel (episode "Why We Fight") is probably the most explicitly based on Orlok, with trademark pointed ears and long fingers. Like other Buffyverse examples, his appearance is credited to age. (It is not stated whether or not his evident senility could also be so credited.)

The Master's appearance from The Strain is heavily influenced by Orlok - though much more physically imposing. On the TV adaptation, he is portrayed by pro wrestler-turned-actor Robert Maillet, who is 6'11".
Most of the elder vampires have aspects of Orlok in their appearance, with uncommonly pale skin, pointed ears, and bald heads - though it's also established that their noses usually atrophy away and vanish over the centuries.

The Simpsons: The gaunt, balding, comically sinister Mr. Burns looks like Orlok even when he's not a vampire. Especially when he wriggles his fingers. In "Treehouse of Horror IV", Mr. Burns is Dracula and a few of his underlings look very Orlokian. Burns himself is primarily a parody of Gary Oldman's portrayal of Dracula in the Coppola movie, but he does look a little Orlokian, too.

The Elder Vampire from Dracula Untold is bald, white-skinned, has pointy teeth, and long claws. He lacks the elongated nose, but other than that he's pretty much Count Orlok. Subverted in the present-day epilogue, where he's still the same ancient vampire, but has reverted to or assumed his fully human appearance.

While Sylar from Heroes certainly doesn't resemble Orlok himself, Nosferatu was an early inspiration for the character. While most of the original idea was changed, it is held over in his depiction in the prophetic paintings from first season. This is most obvious in Sylar's own rendition of himself posing as Nathan in that season's Bad Future, which featured long, taloned fingers. Also, he stole Orlok's coat.

The lizard chimera Bido of Fullmetal Alchemist is completely bald (with a speckled head) and has the requisite pale skin, hooked nose and sharp teeth, and he furthers the similarity by the cloak he always wears, so he can hide from normal humans. Granted, he also has a rather large tail.

Harry Potter:
Voldemort seems inspired a bit by the look of Orlok, only without a nose.
Severus Snape, everyone's favorite gaunt, pallid, hook-nosed recluse. (In fact, for a while, fans used to speculate that he was a vampire.) Instead of the trenchcoat, though, Snape chooses to wear a long black, batlike robe. And the movies kinda ditched this look when they hired Alan Rickman to play Snape.
Ironically, actual vampires in the series don't fall under this trope, being more or less humans with fangs.

What We Do in the Shadows (2019):
Baron Afanas is even more monstrous than Petyr from the movie, with wrinkled grey skin, a completely emaciated body, a batlike face and huge pointed ears. As of season 4 however, he's returned to a more youthful human form as the result of a Djinni wish, losing this look altogether.
The Monster Progenitor of vampires known as the Sire is a comically exaggerated version of this to the point he resembles a gargoyle more than a human. He's mistaken for a mindless beast, but in fact is just angry and speaks a language too ancient for most younger vampires to understand.

In the Laura Caxton novels, vampires have the bald head and pointy ear thing going on, and some let their fingernails grow long and claw-like. However, instead of two front teeth fangs, their whole mouths are full of row after row of sharp teeth, like a shark. Oh, and they're also albinos.

Near the end of Season 13 of Supernatural, the heroes travel to an alternate earth where the Apocalypse was never averted. Because the angels have slaughtered most of humanity, the vampires regress into a more feral, bestial state resembling this trope's namesake with little hair and pointed ears as a result of being deprived of human blood.

The series' vampires tend to become increasingly more monstrous in appearance the longer they go without feeding,note from Oblivion onward, as the peculiarity of the dominant strain in Cyrodiil — other strains, like the ones in Morrowind and Daggerfall, remained monstrous even if they had just fed. Skyrim made it apply to a strain previously indicated to have another quirk. with their faces becoming gaunt and weathered. Vampires of Elven origin, with their already slim builds and pointy ears, are particularly prone to looking like Orlok. The trope is played most straight with the Volkihar Clan in the Dawnguard DLC of Skyrim, who have the power to transform at will into a Vampire Lord◊ with grotesque features, slate-gray skin, pointed ears, deadly claws, vestigial wings on its back and a partially bald head. Unlike Orlok, Vampire Lords wear loincloths (although Lord Harkon also wears a cloak with a high collar) and have impressive physical builds, skeletal wings and claw-like feet.

In the Discworld series:
Bob in The Discworld Reformed Vampyres' Diary 2003. Subversion in that, over the course of a series of notes between the Black Ribbon leader and the woman who plays the harmonium, it becomes apparent that he isn't actually a vampire at all.
Count von Magpyr's grandfather's portrait in Carpe Jugulum.
In The Film of the Book Going Postal, Mr. Gryle, the assassin sent by Reacher Gilt to kill Moist, is this. He's described in less detail in the book but gives off a similar impression. He's a banshee rather than a vampire, although since Discworld banshees prey on humans (the scream isn't an omen of death, it means the banshee is tracking you and will actively kill you) they're similar to vampires.

The older vampires in The Strain (TV series) gradually take on this appearance, with the variation that their noses seem to rot right away. The one known as The Master resembles a bodybuilder version of this trope, and is portrayed by 6'11" actor Robert Maillet until he has to switch host bodies. Played straighter, however, with the dhampyr Mr. Quinlan. In the books, the Nosferatu look was kind of implied, but a little less overt.

While the more standard-variety vampires in World of Warcraft, the undead blood elves known as the Darkfallen, are not monstrous enough to fit this trope, their original concept art was heavily based on Orlok and indeed titled "High Elf Nosferatu".

Darth Vader also qualifies when unmasked in Return of the Jedi. He has pale skin due to his 24-Hour Armor, as well as somewhat deformed facial features and no hair thanks to being burned to near death in Revenge of the Sith. Chronologically earlier depictions downplay the paleness and make him look more scarred.

Riff-Raff from The Rocky Horror Picture Show was partly patterned after Orlok - dark overcoat, balding, thin features and a hunchback. Richard O'Brien would later play the creepy Orlok-alike Mister Hand in Dark City.

Although Count Chocula blended Dracula and Orlok as a cereal mascot, in Breakfast of the Gods, Brian Sanderson subtly played up the Orlokian aspects more. While he kept the elegant clothes and dark widow's peak, he's far more ratlike and sinister: his face is more pointed, his fangs are longer and more wedge-shaped, and his hands look more like the paws of a rat with long thin fingers and prominent knuckles.

The mutated vampires from Daybreakers seem to be heading in this direction. Lack of blood in their diet causes them to revert to a feral state indicated by loss of hair, bulbous head, elongated face, pointy ears, and growth of claws. Of course, these are accompanied by several non-Orlok characteristics like loss of higher brain function, and even arms devolving into wings in extreme cases.

Warcraft:
Though they are demons instead of vampires, the Nathrezim Dreadlords look much like demonic versions of Orlok and possess several typical vampire abilities such as the ability to control bats, hypnotize victims to sleep, and occasionally life-draining powers.
While the more standard-variety vampires in World of Warcraft, the undead blood elves known as the Darkfallen, are not monstrous enough to fit this trope, their original concept art was heavily based on Orlok and indeed titled "High Elf Nosferatu".
Wretched elves (blood elves who couldn't control their magic addiction), might not be undead, but they look the part. They have pale grey skin, hunched backs, bald or balding heads, long fingernails, and have the long pointy ears of other elves. Notably, they share the same basic skeleton and animations with the playable Undead.

Timothy Spall's Peter Pettigrew in Harry Potter has elements of this, though he's only balding and he ditches the longcoat for a much-less-impressive cheap suit. He's The Renfield, and the character, like Orlok, is associated with rats, so it's kinda fitting.

Pathfinder: Nosferatu are one of several types of vampire in the game setting; and yes, they look like the gentleman pictured at the top of this page. They even have different abilities than the common-or-garden vampire, all of which are taken from the original film, such as telepathy, telekinesis, and the ability to turn into a swarm of rats, but just like Orlok, they can't create new vampires by drinking blood.

Dungeons & Dragons:
The Basic sourcebook GAZ3 The Principalities of Glantri has the vampire-like nosferatu monsters, whose illustration looks like this. The text doesn't mention them looking weird or standing out in a crowd, however, and later appearances by Mystaran nosferatu show them passing for human.
D&D also has the Keepers, which are basically an Expy of the Strangers from Dark City.
Ravenloft: The third edition books introduce the Vrykolakas, a subtype of vampires that look like Orlok. They are specifically described as "night scavengers and plague-carriers" to play up Orlok's plague rat aspects. One key difference is that instead of fangs they have a long, barbed tongue.
Varrangoins, bat-like 3e magical beasts from the Abyss, have Orlok-style heads.

This is the inevitable fate of all vampires in Straight Outta Fangton, part of the The United States of Monsters world. If you live to be an Ancient One, over a thousand years old, you gradually start becoming a deformed demonic-looking creature. The protagonist, Peter Stone, says the men look like Orlok and the women look like Medusa. Thankfully, they can all shapeshift so it's actually less of a curse than it sounds but most don't care enough to bother.

Not an actual vampire, but Lx-3, the failed Lex clone in Smallville's tenth season premiere, "Lazarus" definitely has this going for him. Between the Bald of Evil, Pointy Ears, protruding front teeth, and grey, wrinkled skin he could easily pass for one of Orlok's relatives.

Vampire: The Masquerade: Many of the Nosferatu in game art take on this appearance, but it can differ quite a bit from the Orlokian norm, as long as it's hideous. This is likely intentional, since the clan has the same name as the movie Orlok came from and has abilities similar to his. The version of the Nosferatu in Vampire: The Requiem can take on many forms foul and fair, but regardless of appearance always has an unsettling aura that makes social interaction difficult.

The makers of Star Trek: Nemesis were going for this look for the Remans. According to makeup supervisor Michael Westmore, "Stuart [Baird] handed me a picture of Nosferatu and said that was exactly what he wanted. He said, 'I need an alien that looks like this.'"
Krall in Star Trek Beyond also looks like Orlok. It's later revealed that he's a heavily mutated human, having turned his DNA into genetic soup due to stealing Life Energy from various aliens to extend his own lifespan.

Bald head, pasty complexion, hooked nose, Pointed Ears, Black Cloak with red highlights, emaciated frame, Creepily Long Arms, Creepy Long Fingers, hunched posture, More Teeth than the Osmond Family... yep, he's got it all! This is not helped by his inhuman levels of agility, the powers he gains from his fragment of the Tablet, his dietary habits, and the fact that he can't stand bright lights.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders: The lecherous Serial Killer J. Geil has a number of Orlokian traits, such as a bald head, hunched posture, pointed ears, and sharp fingernails. The OVA gives him an even more Orlok-inspired design by adding a sickly gray complexion, rat-like incisors, and a narrow, bony jawline.

The Vampire units (as well as many of the Heroes) of Necropolis city in Heroes of Might and Magic III. Especially notable, since HOMM II and IV vampires are Classical Movie Vampires with some minor Orlok-ish traits like gray skin, and HOMM V and VI vampires look like undead nobles in battle garb.
The playable and NPC vampires in Might and Magic VIII aren't quite close enough to fit (they've got the pointy ears, but their other inhuman traits, like their gray skin and red eyes, aren't on the Orlok list). The hostile vampires, on the other hand, add in baldness, longer fangs that seem to be closer to the front teeth and fingers that are longer enough that it is noticeable when they slash at you with them (they also have bat-like wings along their arms).

The Elder Scrolls:
The series' vampires tend to become increasingly more monstrous in appearance the longer they go without feeding,note from Oblivion onward, as the peculiarity of the dominant strain in Cyrodiil — other strains, like the ones in Morrowind and Daggerfall, remained monstrous even if they had just fed. Skyrim made it apply to a strain previously indicated to have another quirk. with their faces becoming gaunt and weathered. Vampires of Elven origin, with their already slim builds and pointy ears, are particularly prone to looking like Orlok. The trope is played most straight with the Volkihar Clan in the Dawnguard DLC of Skyrim, who have the power to transform at will into a Vampire Lord◊ with grotesque features, slate-gray skin, pointed ears, deadly claws, vestigial wings on its back and a partially bald head. Unlike Orlok, Vampire Lords wear loincloths (although Lord Harkon also wears a cloak with a high collar) and have impressive physical builds, skeletal wings and claw-like feet.
Scamps are the weakest and smallest known form of lesser Daedra, and they check every box for looking like Orlok save for the hooked nose (Scamps have nostril slits instead) and the trenchcoat (Scamps don't wear clothing).
The Falmer have elements of this trope in their design, although their noses are shriveled rather than long.

Abidani of Gamble Fish. He's a vindictive, macabre, sadistic character with a bald head, a very angular face, spindly limbs, a hooked nose, elf ears, a slight hunch and spiky teeth. This appearance was caused due to Abidani being nearly electrocuted to death by an electric chair as a young man.

The Modifyers: Baron Vain can be considered a caricature of Orlok, given the similarities in appearance (bald, blueskinned, etc.), complete with having a rat for a henchman —named "Rat". However, Vain was hardly menacing, nor did he seem to be a vampire.

Vampires from the Legacy of Kain series go through a progression of appearance as they age: They start out fairly human-looking, develop into a more elven/bishonen form with talon-like nails, further evolve to gain more bestial traits like three-clawed hands and feet, and the really ancient ones like Kain and Vorador end up with a far more monstrous look that features pointed, bat-like ears (the shape seems to vary) and mottled skin (compare Kain's appearance in Blood Omen to Soul Reaver, for instance). The games also show vampires evolving out of humanoid form entirely, given enough time and the right circumstances.
There's a much more direct Orlok homage in Blood Omen 2. Marcus, one of the bosses, dresses in a voluminous black overcoat and has the requisite pale complexion, bald head, angular features, and spindly fingers.

Two examples: Olrox from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (his name is a giveaway) and Brauner from Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin. It should be noted that while Brauner physically resembles Orlok (except he doesn't have the pointy incisors), he dresses like the later, classier versions, making him a weird hybrid of the two designs.

The vampires of 30 Days of Night are a successful balance of a Nosferatu-like vampire and the prevalent "pretty" vampire, so much so they seem to have sparked a revival of the former appearance. They have black irises, pasty-white skin, claws, and shark-like teeth.

Hordak from She-Ra and the Princesses of Power is a downplayed example; while he breaks a few of the norms associated with this trope (he has a slicked fauxhawk instead of the traditional bald head, an upright posture instead of a Primal Stance, and a small, upturned nose instead of a Sinister Schnoz) he still has a pale complexion, long pointed ears, claws, red fangs, glowing red eyes, thick black eye makeup, and black cloak with a high collar that all combine to make him resemble nothing so much as an extraterrestrial vampire.

Baron Afanas is even more monstrous than Petyr from the movie, with wrinkled grey skin, a completely emaciated body, a batlike face and huge pointed ears. As of season 4 however, he's returned to a more youthful human form as the result of a Djinni wish, losing this look altogether.

In episode 6 of Ugly Americans, Blake is a blatant Expy of Edward from The Twilight Saga, while Blake's father was obviously modeled after Orlok.

Thor: Love and Thunder gives Gorr the God Butcher, who has a distinctly alien appearance in the comics, a more vampiric look with a bald head, pale skin, an emaciated body and sharp teeth. His actor, Christian Bale, has cited Count Orlok as one of the main influences on his portrayal of the character.

Camille, the main vampire character of Bloody Urban is essentially the Cute Monster Girl version of Orlok- she has sunken in eyes, pronounced fangs on both her front teeth and canines, and large, bat-like ears.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer:
The Master. The interesting thing is that the vampires in that world usually look like normal humans most of the time and then put on their vampiric Game Face when they're about to do some vampire shit. The Master is so old that he's now in permanent Looks-like-Orlok-mode, and the other vampires are pretty impressed by it.
The Turok-han ubervamps from the final season also followed the Orlok mold.
The Prince of Lies in Angel (episode "Why We Fight") is probably the most explicitly based on Orlok, with trademark pointed ears and long fingers. Like other Buffyverse examples, his appearance is credited to age. (It is not stated whether or not his evident senility could also be so credited.)
Simone Doffler, once sired by Maloker (the progenitor vampire/Old One). Aside from her freakish vampire bat Nightmare Face, she also becomes emaciated, pale, and grows long taloned fingers.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom has an amusing case, where the director's Gothic Horror approach led him to ask the effects crew to use Nosferatu as a reference for the Indoraptor. Hence the new hybrid dinosaur has gangly limbs ending in huge claws, a hunched posture and weird front teeth. There's even an homage to Nosferatu's famous shadow-ascending-a-staircase scene, where all we can see is the Indoraptor's shadow.

The look of a horror character from a running sketch on The Fast Show was based on Orlok; he would emerge out of the night to awaken a young woman in black and white, but would answer her scream only with non sequiturish betting tips.

The Higher Vampires seen in Blood & Wine expansion of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt bear varying degrees of resemblance to this trope when they put their Game Face on. Dettlaff even has the iconic greatcoat, although his facial features are more wolf- than ratlike, while Regis gets the iconic sharp incisors-look. And then there's the Unseen Elder who doesn't even try to pass for a human, although his face isn't quite as monstrously deformed as a full-on Game Face.

Vampire from LoLo Apollo: I'm Afraid of Americans is a mixture of this and Skull for a Head. Despite looking about as ghoulish as it's possible for a humanoid creature to look, she's rather twee and is a snappy dresser.

The makers of Star Trek: Nemesis were going for this look for the Remans. According to makeup supervisor Michael Westmore, "Stuart [Baird] handed me a picture of Nosferatu and said that was exactly what he wanted. He said, 'I need an alien that looks like this.'"

The Council's Vampyri in City of Heroes look like this, although they are not actual vampires. They are the result of a super-soldier program inherited from the 5th Column, which they overthrew. The highest-ranking of them is actually named Nosferatu.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines: The Nosferatu Vampire Variety are all bald, fanged, pointy-eared, and grey-skinned, and many have even more substantial deformities. Fat Larry calls a Nosferatu Player Character a "Halloween-lookin' S&M gremlin" and they automatically violate the Masquerade if they're seen by most humans.
