When I was a child I remember this movie that scared me so bad it was about a monster that ripped peoples hearts out there was a detective in this move who received a heart in a box in the offiace and I remember that most of the movie took place at night .
Can anyone tell me the name of this movie please

If you were a child in 1987, you may be referring to "Angel Heart,"
which involves hearts being cut out of people's chests, a detective,
the devil and voodoo. It stars Mickey Rourke, Robert DeNiro and
Lisa Bonet (from the Huxtables). Here's a short synopsis:

Full Synopsis Cast & Crew Related Movies

The time is the 1950s: seedy Brooklyn private eye Harry Angel (Mickey Rourke) is hired by shady Louis Cyphre (Robert De Niro) to locate a pop singer who reneged on a debt. Harry ventures into Harlem, the first step of a Heart of Darkness-inspired odyssey. Each time Harry makes contact with someone who might know the singer's whereabouts, he or she is killed in a horrible, ritualistic fashion; a Satanic cult seems to be at the bottom of all the carnage. Harry solves the mystery, all right. He just didn't know that he had the answer all along -- even before Louis entered his office. Also available in the "unrated" video version, Angel Heart is best known as the film that nearly got an X-rating due to a no-holds-barred sex scene involving Mickey Rourke and Lisa Bonet. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
