Peter Tremayne was a frequent contributor to themed anthologies throughout the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s. His horror stories appeared in collections dedicated to vampires, werewolves, zombies, and Frankenstein monsters, fitting alongside other genre writers in the popular Mammoth Book series and similar imprints. These contributions draw on the same interests that produced his Dracula Lives trilogy and his standalone horror novels.

On the mystery side, Tremayne contributed to several historical whodunit anthologies, including volumes organized around Shakespearean settings, royal courts, and the world of Sherlock Holmes. His story in The Chronicles of the Round Table brought him into Arthurian territory, while Dark Detectives put him alongside supernatural detective fiction. The range of these anthology appearances reflects Tremayne’s versatility as a short-fiction writer, comfortable in both horror and mystery, and his willingness to work with editors across different subgenres.
