The Misfits Box Set is a box set by The Misfits, released in 1996 by Caroline Records. The box, which is a black cardboard, velvet-lined faux coffin, includes four CDs, a small paperback book of lyrics, and a vintage Fiend Club pin. It is sometimes referred to as the Caroline collection, as Caroline, from the record label's name, is on the coffin and CDs.

The booklet includes a four-page article by The Misfits' former photographer Eerie Von, the lyrics to all of the songs included in the set, various photographs of The Misfits, some rare sketches by Glenn Danzig, and a discography. The discography shows all of the bands previous records and how many copies were produced. The cover, some of the inside, and back of the booklet have pictures made by artist Dave McKean, famous for his many graphic novel art and other artwork.

All of the music included in the box set was by The Misfits when Glenn Danzig was still in the band.
