I liked it in Buffy but I literally came to the comments to see if anyone was going to bring up that this happened twenty years ago in Buffy

Were there vampire ghosts in Buffy? Honesty I don't remember, so I am genuinely asking.

It took me to the ayrt comment to remember that soulless vampires existed as a thing that basically separated the 'good' vampires from 'evil'. In What We Do In The Shadows, there isn't this sort of moral conflict, they'll essentially act as an experienced souled (idk? vampire with a soul) vampire by Buffy's standards.

I think I mostly just used the wrong wording, but the only alternative to 'soul' is 'spirit' that I can think of. Basically what bothered me so much was that as far as canon pokes hints at (since they do reference olden mythology about vampires for a a half a second) vampires in this world wouldn't have ghosts since they retain everything that made them who they were when they were human.
There has been people turned in the show before. The process is basically (and I mentioned this above) being infected by a parasite of sorts (by ingesting the vampires blood) which ends up shifting the body in a fairly gruesome/magically manner unto that of which a vampire can survive. (at least this is my take, since I don't believe they go into the exact details as to why in the show) The transformation results to death of the infected but almost simultaneously a rebirth into a new fledgling vampire.
