Lovecraft & Witch Hearts is a compilation album by Cradle of Filth. It is described in Dani Filth's sleevenotes as "a favoured grimoire of tracks coupled with the rare and unreleased, rather a 'mess of' than a 'best of'..." It was one of two releases in 2002 (the other being Live Bait for the Dead) and was designed to round off Cradle of Filth's contract with Music For Nations before their short-lived signing to Sony.

Disc One (Lovecraft) consists of album tracks from their Music For Nations back-catalogue. Disc Two (Witch Hearts) consists of extra tracks culled from limited and import editions of their MFN releases (e.g. the two-disc version of Cruelty and the Beast), along with some remixes.
