We calculate, in the context of higher dimensional gravity, the stress-energy tensor and Weyl anomaly associated with anti-de Sitter and anti-de Sitter black hole solutions. The boundary counter-term method is used to regularize the action and the resulting stress-energy tensor yields both the correct black hole energies as well as a vacuum energy contribution which is interpreted as a Casimir energy. This calculation is done up to d = 8 (d being the boundary dimension). We confirm some results for d < 8 as well as comment on some new results (some of which are relevant to (2,0) theory). All results for d=8 are new.
