As long as the top card of your library is black, this creature and other Vampire creatures you control get +2/+1 and have flying.
Legality is a property of the card, not the printing, so it is identical for all 6 versions.
Official Judge Precedents
5 PrecedentsTo work as an evasion ability, an attacking creature must already have flying when the declare blockers step begins. Once a creature has become blocked, giving it flying won't change that.
When playing with the top card of your library revealed, if an effect tells you to draw several cards, reveal each one before you draw it.
The top card of your library isn't in your hand, so you can't suspend it, cycle it, discard it, or activate any of its activated abilities.
If the top card of your library changes while you're casting a spell, playing a land, or activating an ability, the new top card won't be revealed until you finish doing so.
If the top card of your library is black, Vampire Nocturnus will give itself +2/+1 and flying even if it's somehow not a Vampire.
