According to the original movie DRACULA, there was more to becoming a vampire than just being bitten by one, even if the victim died. Dracula has Mina drink his blood as part of the process. The victim also has to die at night, not during the day. Although we didn't see very many details leading up to Lucy's death, I think we can assume Dracula drank from her several times and purposely turned her into a vampire by having her drink his blood too. She showed a fascination with him and probably became more or less a willing victim as his power over her grew. Renfield was also bitten by Dracula and probably his wives as well, but we don't get any indication that after his death he was going to return as a full fledged vampire, rather than just a fly eater. I think the flower girl was probably supposed to be dead or dying in that scene since we are told during the medical theater scene that there was a string of deaths before Lucy, all from loss of blood and all with the same marks on their throats. But since Lucy seems to be the only one who came back as a vampire, the others must not have gotten the full initiation.
