That's kind of the point
The Hiss is more of a malignant meme that is trying to spread than a singular entity
The only personality it has comes from its victims ( Trench hiding it because his feelings of inadequacy, Dylan's anger towards Jesse and Polaris)
and let's not forget
The Hiss was created by Alan Wake (or at least he influenced it, seeing as how the word salad is an experimental poem he wrote on college) as a result of his attempts to escape The Dark Place
It's just the starter version of the Dark Prescence
