That topic is always argued about, some say that vampires burst into flames if the sun hits their skin because the lack of nutrients and pigments in their skin. Others say that vampires only come out at night because the people who are out at time are...tastier. No one knows for sure except for the vampires themselvs.

This all depends on what kind of vampires you are talking about. Fictional vampires (Dracula etc) all have different reactions to sunlight.

Is it true that vampires and vampire bats only feed in the dark?

vampire bats are nocturnal so that is when they are awake Vampires, if you go by the way they are in Dracula, can go out in day, but lose their powers (no sparkling). Because of this, they usually only go out at night when they are strong, but they can go out in day if needed. So they only feed at night when they can use their hypnotic powers.
