Hello!
I was playing in the Crusade: Vienna Tournament on friday 11/07/1997
and used there my Succubus Club (the coolest card ever). My question is:
When I get a tapped Vampire from another Methuselah (in my untap phase),
does it untap so I can take an action with him, and vice versa does he
untap when I give the vampire back to its original controller?

No. Can't be bothered to quote the rule but it goes like this.
Untap phase: Untap everything you control
THEN
(After a bit)
Other Untap Phase Effects
Succubus Club is an other untap phase effect (done after, for instance,
yielding contested cards). This is done after you get untap everything
you control.
So no, getting a tapped Sheldon, Lord of the Clog with a Succubus Club
does not allow you to untap it (but you don't have to give it back and
could just wait until next turn so you have him then to untap - might
annoy the other player though).

Cards do not untap except when specified in the rules or on card text.
The rules only specify two times:
1. At the beginning of the controller's untap phase.
2. When a card is returned to the controlled region from contesting.
Since the Succubus Club doesn't say to untap, and the trade happens
after (1) and cannot involve anything addressed by (2), the answer to
both questions is: "no."
