could he have some vampire tendencies? I realize this is a stretch.
just curious. I am also wondering if we know what Snape's patronus is
and what his boggart turns into? These were hits given on a website.

This has been debated before and it hasn't been resolved in the
Potterverse as of yet. Snape does lurk in the corridors at night,
likes to keep his room dark, and I loved the fact that in the
"Spinner's End" the trio toasted with "bloodred" wine. Not to mention
how Snape's cloak tends to billow when there isn't any wind and the
quips Ron has made regarding Snape and his bat-like tendencies. Then
again, it could just be a red-herring.

I don't think your belief is a stretch at all. I believe that in
addition to being the "Half-blood Prince", Snape may also be
"Half-vampire", which is why he can be out in the daytime. He is an
incredible potions master, so perhaps he has concocted a potion that
allows him to be out during the day (much like the wolfsbane potion).

Just my thoughts...
