Notes:
- The title as it appears on the cover ("The SFX Book of Classic Vampire Tales") differs from the title page.
- Title page and Contents are combined on the first actual page, numbered page 3.
- Page numbering indicates the total page count includes covers.
- The page headers of 'For the Blood Is the Life' title the story as "For Blood Is the Life".
- Free with SFX #44, back cover states "Free with SFX Collection 44".
- Cover is uncredited but evidently by Bosch.
- No cover price, ISBN or publication date. Date obtained from SFX website for Issue #44.
- There is an odd typesetting error of random letters that fills page 111, unconnected to the Rudyard Kipling story 'The Mark of the Beast' that it interrupts.
