De Vampyrica Philosophia is the debut solo studio album by Italian extreme metal vocalist Lord Vampyr, released on 6 February 2005 through Officina Rock Records. The album was Lord Vampyr's first release following his departure from Theatres des Vampires. The title is a pun on the famous occult treatise De Occulta Philosophia.

The spoken-word portion of the track "De Vampyrica Philosophia" was taken from the opening lines of the 2003 film The Order, and the instrumentation is sampled from the 1992 film Bram Stoker's Dracula.

Tracks 6 and 7 contain quotations from poems by Oscar Wilde.
