Not exactly how it works. The Count is a mirror to whoever speaks to them, not just to whoever is in the dream, as there can be multiple people sharing it. He does not take on aspects of the person, but merely tells a person whatever they already subconsciously know. As this entity kills people by telling them a maddening amount of information, they cannot actually know all of that information subconsciously already, and hence the entity is not the Count.So if the count is a mirror, and the reason it became a dangerous spectre this time is bc of the prez, maybe the prez is actually a spectre and that would explain why she is still alive after the circus incident.

I'm going to guess the mom got whacked by one of these omnipotent entities, and the guy never realized.
The strongest eldritch entity is no match for a bimbo.Noooooo! We want this to be an egg metaphor, not an omelette metaphor!
And once again: ignorance is THE best defence against the eldritch and the Lovecraftian!
This isn't the first time. Most of the specters in this series have been selective on how they follow their own rules. They're there to kill cute girls, not get caught in mere human logic traps.Wait but why didnt they go for either of them when they asked a question? Selective ass demonic creatures...
