A Fate Worse than Death that in some stories happens after death, just as Fluffy Cloud Heaven is The Theme Park Version of Heaven, Fire And Brimstone Hell is the Theme Park version of Hell. Generally, if it isn't an Ironic Hell, Hell Is War, the Bloody Bowels of Hell or A Hell of a Time, it's this. And even in those other cases, you can expect the odd brazier and stalactite. The common portrayals of this afterlife is as a vast cavern or system of caverns, with rocky pillars, stalactites and stalagmites scattered around. Fire, hellfire or regular, is common and plentiful — pits of flame, random infernos, rivers of lava, and beds of live coals are all ubiquitous features of the environment. Artificial decor usually consists of elaborate instruments of punishment, such as torture racks, hanging cages, and jail cells set into the cave walls. The inhabitants are endless crowds of sinners in ragged clothes, strapped to racks, dangling in cages, or trudging along in miserable files, while red-skinned devils with horns and tails poke them around with their pitchforks. Sometimes, it's actually shown to be underground literally, but most of the time it's Another Dimension. Note the curious discrepancy; despite rebelling against God, devils in hell are doing some kind of job with awe-inspiring diligence and consistency. This job arguably makes Hell someplace someone doesn't want to go, which theoretically helps God. Some theorize that Hell is thus part of God's plan and still under His employ, which may or may not put His infinite goodness into doubt depending on who you ask; or else devils get something out of torturing souls. Mana, perhaps. Or maybe they're just sadistically amusing themselves. Another popular theory in fiction is that it was originally a prison but Satan took it over, subverting its mechanics. If a Judgement of the Dead happens down here, it's likely to be a Kangaroo Court with a loaded jury that's already decided on a guilty verdict and started workshopping punishments before the defendant even entered the room. In works that feature many Circles of Hell, the Fire and Brimstone Hell is often near the top, with other hellish realms below. For information on how this trope came about, see the Analysis page. Note that brimstone is the old English word for "sulfur". Examples |

Adventure Time features a dimension sustained by Chaotic Evil called the Nightosphere, which consists of ominosus fortresses, volcanoes, blazing infernos, pits of fire and lakes of flame beneath a red sky, and is populated by a great variety of monstrous demons. Apparently, however, the dead don't go there. | |

Eric: Played with. The Discworld version of Hell is a Fire and Brimstone Hell... but the inmates have realized that they no longer have corporeal bodies, and so there's nothing requiring them to feel pain anymore. The new King of Hell has shaken things up by introducing mental rather than physical tortures, but the actual demons are just as upset about this as the "clients". | |

The Far Side: Hell features in several strips, always as a network of tunnels filled with gouts of flame. Its inhabitants are devils, who all have horns and red skin, wear high-collared capes, wield pitchforks and have a fondness for Black Comedy. The souls of the damned, who resemble their living selves but clad in rags, are subjected to a variety of punishments, generally either physical labor or imprisonment in one of Hell's many prison cells, though often with some Cool and Unusual Punishment aspects. | |

Disgaea: A couple of areas in the Netherworld are like this, such as the Sea of Gehenna, and the immediate area around Laharl's Castle (which itself hovers atop of a giant lake of lava). That being said, Disgaea's Netherworld generally has more variety than your average Hell, including anything from frozen wastelands to trippy starfields to inconspicuously cheerful-looking Ghibli Hills. | |

The Simpsons: "Bart Gets Hit by a Car": Bart appears to be ascending into Heaven, but after spitting over the rail (which he was told not to do), he gets sent to this version of Hell (although the Devil is purposefully depicted as scrawny). Bart gets sent back because it's not really his time, and he doesn't seem particularly concerned about avoiding this fate — shrugging off changing his ways. "Homer's Triple Bypass": After suffering the latest in a series of heart attacks, Homer wakes up to say, "Oh, Doctor, I was in the most wonderful place with fire and brimstone." "Treehouse of Horror IV": In "The Devil and Homer Simpson", after Homer makes a Deal with the Devil for a doughnut, he's sent to a Hell full of fire and horned demons. There, Homer is sent to the "ironic punishments" department, where he is forced to eat thousands of doughnuts. However, because of his insatiable appetite, Homer eats all of the doughnuts ... and (with his body in a humorously bloated state) demands that Satan give him more! "Simpsons Bible Stories": At the end, the Simpsons discover that Judgement Day has begun while they slept through church, and the family is sent to Hell together, shown as a staircase leading underground with fire coming out of it. Once they're descended, you hear Homer screaming in pain and horror, but it turns out to be because the barbecue down there was out of hotdogs, and they were serving german potato salad and coleslaw with pineapple. "Treehouse of Horror XXV": In "School Is Hell", Bart and Lisa are sent to the School of Hell, which is situated in a fiery hell and where all students (including Bart and Lisa) have demonic appearances and learn about how to deliver properly ironic eternal torment to sinners. Bart likes it so much he ends up transferring there. Rev. Lovejoy's sermons frequently allude to the fire-and-brimstone depiction of Hell. In one episode, the Simpsons are at church on an extremely cold day and moan with delight as Reverend Lovejoy describes souls burning eternally in Hell. |

Problem Sleuth: Hell appears occasionally, appearing almost exactly like this page's description. The major difference is that, because weapons randomly turn into other objects in the comic, the devils poke the souls of the damned with gay porn magazines. | |

Dark Souls: Dark Souls invokes this with the Demon Ruins and Lost Izalith, two demon infested lava levels. Dark Souls II has the arena where you fight the Burnt Ivory King and his knights, complete with the shrieking wails of the damned. It is an intentional recreation of the the Bed Of Chaos in the aforementioned Lost Izalith, if not the original deal itself. It's quite a shift from the frozen citadel above. |

Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies: Fire-and-brimstone depictions of Hell were frequently used in several cartoons, while others made reference to them. Some examples: "Satan's Waitin'", a 1954 short starring Tweety Bird and Sylvester. After Sylvester crashes to the sidewalk while chasing Tweety, he "loses" a life and appears before a Satanic bulldog; behind him is a fiery pit, where several bulldogs are waiting to get at the puddy tat. As the cartoon progresses, Sylvester's "other lives" arrive in Hell as the cat continues to get clobbered while chasing Tweety. Eventually, Sylvester — realizing he doesn't want to go to Hell — stops chasing the bird ... but ends up there anyhow when two bank robbers blow up a safe using too much nitroglycerine. "Devil's Feud Cake," starring Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam. Here, clips from several past Bugs-Yosemite cartoons are cobbled together with alternate endings, all with Sam getting the worst end of things. After each "death", Sam appears before Satan, who wants Bugs' soul, and goads him into continuing after that varmint. When Sam dies (after being mauled by lions, in an encore of "Roman Legion Hare"), Satan offers "one last chance" to get Bugs, but Sam quickly dons a devil's costume and decides he'd rather stay in Hell! ("If you want him, you can get him yourself. I'm staying!" (Evil Laugh)). Daffy Duck winds up in Hell in a last ditch effort to avoid being drafted in "Draftee Daffy", but the little man from the draft board even shows up there! Animaniacs: This is the Hell where the Warner Brothers and their Sister end up in "Hot, Bothered and Bedeviled". It is where sinners are tortured by being thrown into lakes of fire, poked with pitchforks, and forced to watch reruns of The Facts of Life. True to Warner form, the kids proceed to torment Satan until he can't stand it anymore, culminating in freezing Hell over, leading to him kicking them out of Hell and into Heaven instead. |

Cuphead: Hell seems like a pretty cool place at first glance, being an opulent casino full of games and money and alcohol and all that good stuff. Of course, it's meant to lure in patrons to fatten them up with "good luck" and tempt them into raising the stakes and gambling their souls. When you go down into the basement for the final battle with the big guy himself, you find that all the opulence is just a nice tasty piece of bait and Hell is actually a vast cavern full of fire and lava and tortured souls. | |

Paradise Lost: Hell is more of a Fire and Brimstone Hell than Dante's — for instance, Satan is, in the opening, chained to a lake of brimstone. Everything in that land is constantly burning, although the fallen angels don't mind too much. Some demons argue for exploring, mining and making the most of their existence in Hell. | |

The Divine Comedy: In spite of everything, Dante's Inferno actually averted this trope for the most part. Naked flames do feature, but only four of the twenty-four divisions of Dante's Hell (heretics lie in flaming tombs, blasphemers, sodomites, and usurers are in a desert with fire raining down, simoniacs are stuck upside down with flames burning at their feet, and evil counselors are stuck in individual tongues of flame) and just one of the seven regions in his Purgatory (the seventh terrace, for the repentant lustful). You are as likely to be boiled, drowned, shredded, chopped, frozen, or suffer any number of other creative torments as you are burnt in Dante's Inferno. Furthermore, Satan (along with other traitors) is imprisoned in the deepest level of Hell-Cocytus, a frozen lake. | |

Supernatural: Played with. The demonic hierarchy seem to be able to change Hell's shape at will, with the Fire and Brimstone version featuring occasionally. The first glimpse we get of Hell is through the Devil's Gate in the final episode of Season 2, and what we see is a rock passageway lit from below by what looks like fire or lava. Then, subverted in the last episode of Season 3, when we see someone actually in Hell, which looks like a thunderstorm with metal chains and sharp hooks everywhere, with the guy himself in the middle of it. Finally, in Season 6, we see someone else remember Hell, and it is a completely straight Fire and Brimstone Hell. Then later once Crowley is in charge of hell, it's just people waiting in line in a dingy hallway. Forever. They take a number and join the queue. And once they get to the front of the line? They go back to the end. | |

In Oblivion, you get to visit the Deadlands and it really fits the bill. Additionally, Mankar Camoran seems to have taken inspiration from Mehrunes Dagon when constructing the "torture area" of his "Paradise", a pocket realm of Oblivion. New arrivals are dipped in lava. | |

World of Warcraft:The Maw is essentially Hell in all but name. It's a stygian wasteland intended to be The Alcatraz for the worst souls in existence, which are tortured for eons and turned into mindless wraiths, but in Shadowlands, something happens that causes every soul of the recently deceased to get sent there regardless of how they acted in life. | |

The Binding of Isaac: Repentance: The Beast is fought in a Hell-like cavern flooded with either magma or boiling hot blood, a place the creator referred to as the Lake of Fire in a promotional Tweet for the Four Souls card game. It's not just for show — the magma will cause damage if touched, and some of the Beast's attacks involve dodging the stalagmites and stalactites in the cavern while she chases Isaac. | |

The local sheriff takes a whiff of Clark and notes that the boy doesn't smell like fire and brimstone, concluding that if he truly is possessed by a demon, then it's the lousiest demon in all of creation. | |

Point Horror Unleashed features this in Fright Train as the carriage gets hotter and hotter, the air around them begins to smell of sulphur and they are served by a polite but hot tempered man dressed in red and black called Nick. Aside from the horrific visions each passenger has (save for the protagonists), the depiction is so stereotypical, you wonder why none of them figure out what's going on until they reach their 'final destination.' | |

The Book of Fiends: Smoke and heat dominate the Bloodpyre Fields. Volcanoes, lakes of fire and magma rivers create a cast common in many basic images of a tormented afterlife. Searing-hot winds blast the entire layer, crisping flesh from bone. Breathing is impossible without the assistance of magic or technology. A place of fire, smoke and endless suffering, the Fourth Circle comes closest to what mortals imagine Hell is like. Souls shriek from pools of liquid fire, while devils patrol the edges and shove would-be escapees back in to cook forever. Fumes from fiery lakes thicken the air with toxic smoke. |

Dark Souls II has the arena where you fight the Burnt Ivory King and his knights, complete with the shrieking wails of the damned. It is an intentional recreation of the the Bed Of Chaos in the aforementioned Lost Izalith, if not the original deal itself. It's quite a shift from the frozen citadel above. | |

Marvel Universe: Hell-Lords are demons that control their own dimensions. Most of those "pocket hells" are based on this version, especially Mephisto's. It's almost certainly done on purpose, because every single one of the Hell-Lords is trying to convince everybody that he is real Satan and his Hell is real Hell. Also when Hell-Lords and rulers of other kinds of afterlives (like Hades from Greek Mythology or Hela's domain from Norse Mythology) choose to combine them into some kind of "MMORPG Afterlife", something like that was created in between. The brimstone is also specifically there in some parts, as Nightcrawler travels through that dimension when he teleports, bringing back smoke retaining the smell. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: Certain layers of the Lower Planes fit this trope better than others. Of the Nine Hells of Baator, Avernus and Phlegethos, the first and fourth layer respectively, are scorching wastelands where fireballs perpetually rain from the sky or tendrils of flame seek out trespassers. This actually works in the devils' favor, since baatezu have a racial immunity to fire, while any invading demons are merely resistant to it. But the other hells are much more varied: Dis is an Orwellian metropolis with burning-hot metal walls, Minauros is a foul swamp, Stygia and Cania are both hellishly cold, Malbolge was recently-redecorated with the help of its previous ruler, Maladomini is a polluted ruin, and Nessus is a scorched plain broken into a web of canyons and fissures. The yugoloths' current home plane of Gehenna consists of an endless series of volcanic mountains rising into a void, seemingly without base or peak. Its four layers are only differentiated by their level of volcanic activity. The uppermost peak, Khalas, is crossed by rivers of lava beneath a dark sky backlit by the rock's glow reflecting off of vast clouds of ash and smoke; the second mount, Chamada, is the most inhospitable thanks to extreme volcanism that fills with huge streams of lava, gouts of molten rock, clouds of choking ash and sulphur, and all-pervading intense heat; the third mount of Mungoth is so quiet as to be cold and snow-covered; and the fourth mount of Krangath is dead and silent. The Infinite Layers of the Abyss presumably has a few layers with the "fire-dominant" trait, but as previously mentioned, (most) tanar'ri are not actually immune to fire damage, so the better-known layers are characterized more by features like rivers of salt or forests of viper-trees. |

The Icelandic Sagas: In the "Tale of Thorstein Shiver" from the Flateyjarbòk, the eponymous protagonist has a conversation with a demon who relates to him how the heroes of the pagan past are doing in Hell; namely, that Sigurd Fafnisbani fires the oven, and that Starkad the Old is up to his ankles in burning flames. When Thorstein remarks that these seem relatively mild punishments, the demon calmly clarifies that Sigurd is the firewood, and that Starkad's head is pointing downward. | |

The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky: The Septian Church preaches about Gahenna (the series' equivalent to hell) as a fire-filled world. In Sky the 3rd, it is an exportable area due to the cast entering multiple planes created based on unconscious desires due to the Reality Warper Aureole device and follows the burning world aesthetic combined with a whirling vortex background. If the player makes it to the bottom of the optional Abyss dungeon within Gahenna, they are rewarded with the 15th Star Door, a retelling of The Angel of Slaughter's childhood as a Sex Slave and her Stepford Smiler compatriots. | |

Incarnations of Immortality has a Hell that is like this in many places. It's revealed through later books that Hell has many regions, including a "mock Heaven" for souls that have been incorrectly sent to Hell and can't now be returned to Heaven.note Heaven is actually pretty dull and Mock Heaven is much more fun, because the current Satan is, all things considered, a pretty nice guy once you get to know him, although he works fairly hard to keep people from finding that out. | |

What Dreams May Come shows many visions of Hell, only one of which them of the Fire and Brimstone variety. Hell is shown as a surging sea, a beach of flaming shipwrecks (fitting the trope), a field of disembodied faces, and a parallel universe version of the damned's own house, set on the ceiling of an upside-down cathedral. Also, none of the torment of Hell depicted is physical, only mental. | |

"Devil's Feud Cake," starring Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam. Here, clips from several past Bugs-Yosemite cartoons are cobbled together with alternate endings, all with Sam getting the worst end of things. After each "death", Sam appears before Satan, who wants Bugs' soul, and goads him into continuing after that varmint. When Sam dies (after being mauled by lions, in an encore of "Roman Legion Hare"), Satan offers "one last chance" to get Bugs, but Sam quickly dons a devil's costume and decides he'd rather stay in Hell! ("If you want him, you can get him yourself. I'm staying!" (Evil Laugh)). | |

Johnny the Homicidal Maniac: The first time Hell appears, it's just like Earth but is filled with all the world's stupid, petty and shallow people, who all react in a ridiculously over-the-top manner to minor annoyances. Later, when Squee looks in the basement of Senor Diablo's earthly house, it's classic fire and brimstone. The premise, of course, is that just being surrounded entirely by people who deserve to be in Hell is Hell itself. As Sartre said, "Hell is other people." Literally. It is also implied to be Satan's punishment for rebelling against God — being forced to run the repository for human ingrates for the rest of eternity. | |

After Sylvester crashes to the sidewalk while chasing Tweety, he "loses" a life and appears before a Satanic bulldog; behind him is a fiery pit, where several bulldogs are waiting to get at the puddy tat. As the cartoon progresses, Sylvester's "other lives" arrive in Hell as the cat continues to get clobbered while chasing Tweety. Eventually, Sylvester — realizing he doesn't want to go to Hell — stops chasing the bird ... but ends up there anyhow when two bank robbers blow up a safe using too much nitroglycerine. | |

Star Trek: The Original Series: In "The Cage" (with footage re-used in "The Menagerie"), the Talosians briefly inflict the illusion of Fire and Brimstone Hell on Captain Pike. Furthermore, if Pike does not behave, the Talosians threaten to go deeper still into his mind for experiences even worse! One of them refers to the image as something "from a fable you once heard in childhood", which may be Roddenberry's way of sneaking in his humanistic views. | |

The Elder Scrolls: While not Hell itself, the series has the Deadlands, the Daedric plane of Mehrunes Dagon, Daedric Prince of Destruction. Crossing over with Mordor, the Deadlands is a bleak and barren realm, containing wastelands of blackened rock, seas of lava, and partially destroyed structures. However, the Deadlands subverts the "fire" part of the trope as, despite the flowing lava all over the place, mortals who visit are said to feel an "unearthly chill" within the realm. In Oblivion, you get to visit the Deadlands and it really fits the bill. Additionally, Mankar Camoran seems to have taken inspiration from Mehrunes Dagon when constructing the "torture area" of his "Paradise", a pocket realm of Oblivion. New arrivals are dipped in lava. |

Devil May Cry: The franchise has a few examples, but mostly averts it: When you fight Mundus in the first game, the second half of the battle does in fact take place in a lake of fire. It's mentioned in a dialogue line and some texts of Devil May Cry 4; Berial introduces himself as "The conqueror of the Fire Hell". However, said location is never shown. |

Super Columbine Massacre RPG!: The second half has the Columbine High School killers Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold waking up in Hell after they kill themselves, with heavy influence drawn from the Hell levels in the Doom games. Whereas the first half of the game was extremely easy on account of none of your victims being able to fight back, this part brings more difficulty as you now face demons trying to kill you. For Eric and Dylan, though, getting to play out their Doom fantasy for real turns it into A Hell of a Time. | |

The DCU: Neron and other devils live in a Fire and Brimstone Hell. The damned souls of mortals are all self-exiled — they impose their own punishments and compel Hell to torture them because they think they deserve it. (Of course, the demons eventually set up an economy based on these souls, which makes them anxious to collect more.) Superman Smashes the Klan: Referenced. A young Clark is accused of being demon-possessed after he floats into the air and shoots "the fires of hell" from his eyes. The local sheriff takes a whiff of Clark and notes that the boy doesn't smell like fire and brimstone, concluding that if he truly is possessed by a demon, then it's the lousiest demon in all of creation. Wonder Woman (1987): When Neron nabs Wondy, Cassie, Artemis, and Jason Blood off the street, the corner of the underworld that he pulls them to is fiery with vast pools of lava, however even when later writers had Hades become manned by a God of Evil it remained a dark relitivly quiet and cold bit of underworld. |

There are rivers and lakes of molten lava and stone dragon heads which breathe fire at Xena, and in order to advance to Hades' quarters (to demand Hades to release her) Xena must cross a rotating stone bridge over a bottomless pit surrounded by lava waterfalls. | |

Futurama has Robot Hell, a Physical Hell built by the adherents of the Church of Robotology to hold any members who violate the oath of membership and sin. As soon as a Robotolgist sins, the red-and-horned Robot Devil will kidnap them and bring them to the red-painted walls of Robot Hell where they will suffer in lakes of fire and pools of acid while enduring cheesy musical numbers suited to their sins. In a nod to the inspiration of the pop-image of Dante's Hell, the robot underworld is located under an amusement park ride called The Inferno. | |

Touhou Project: Any references to "hell" in the series refer to "the Buddhist hells".In Touhou Chireiden ~ Subterranean Animism, the Ancient City is located in a now unused district of hell. Snowfall suggests the city is part of a former cold hell while the Hell of Blazing Fires below it may have once been a hot hell (in fact, the Blazing Fires appears to be nothing but a sea of fire so it goes further than your typical Fire and Brimstone Hell). As of that game in the series, they're re-lit due to the Yatagarasu's power in Utsuho and opened back up as a formal hell destination. | |

In the first season, however, Ai would sometimes warn her clients of what accepting her deal would entail through a short vision of what they would suffer in Hell.

Chick Tracts: Jack Chick is very much a "grim, fiery underworld now, lake of fire later" man. Some of the "grim, fiery underworld" part is indicated to be a visual Translation Convention, however, from a close reading of "No Fear?" in which he refers us to several specific passages from The Bible. These describe it as a "bottomless pit" and "outer darkness" in addition to the fire and brimstone. Depicting flaming sinners tumbling endlessly through infinite darkness with even the flames providing no light, however, wouldn't work very well with visual story-telling. Ironically, "No Fear?" is nearly the only comic in which he even gives us a glimpse◊ of what this would be like. | |

Saturday Night Live: A series of spoof commercials called "Where You're Going" depicts people — mostly yuppies and others who scorn the poor and less-fortunate — suffering in a stereotypical fiery Hell following their deaths. A chorus gleefully sings "You're going to Hell", followed by an announcer (and superimposed notice): "A message from Almighty God." The message was basically an unexpected punch line at the end of what looked like a typical 1980s ad celebrating yuppie materialism. Another when Patrick Stewart hosted. He plays Satan trying to seem fierce and mean, but is continuously mocked by those who should be scared because he chokes on a grape or uses the phrase "til the cows come home." |

Minecraft: Indev, the earliest publicly available version of the game with a Survival mode, used finite island maps surrounded by sea instead of the later game's infinite, procedurally generated ones. At world creation, the player could opt for one of four map themes; one of these, called Hell, replaced all water with lava, lowered the overall light levels while turning the sky a deep red, and produced an unusually high amount of mushrooms on the island. The Nether, the largest of the game's two alternate dimensions. The setting is underground, in a massive system of caverns filled with oceans and waterfalls of lava. Almost everything else is made of a kind of stone which perpetually burns if set on fire and looks suspiciously like flesh, with the exception of patches of semi-solid magma and "Soul Sand", which is covered in patterns highly reminiscent of screaming, agonized faces. The old development name for this dimension was even called "Hell", but Notch decided against a religious term (although the Nether's sole biome was still originally called Hell). Piglins, Zombie Piglins, Magma Cubes and giant tentacled monsters named Ghasts roam this dimension's landscape, while pitch-black Wither Skeletons and fiery Blazes haunt its abandoned fortresses. The 1.16 update (given the self-explanatory title of the "Nether Update") massively overhauled the region by adding forests of giant tree-like fungi and blackened crags of solidified volcanic basalt as new biomes, huge strongholds patrolled by Piglins, and herds of aggressive boar-like Hoglins, among other new features. |

Disenchantment: Hell exists as a literal underworld, accessible by a Hellevator. Suitably volcanic and ruled by Satan, with a strict hierarchy of demons who can be promoted or demoted at his whim. Damned souls are each subjected to their own Ironic Hells in cells where they are forced to endlessly watch projected scenes from the worst moments of their lives — with the popcorn forever out of reach. | |

In Nomine: Hell and its environs are a substantial fraction of the game world. Individual parts of Hell hew to this trope to various degrees, but generally damned souls are less torture subjects and more an enslaved underclass. Plenty of torture happens in Hell, but not with punishment in mind — demons want to extract Essence from souls, and one of the most efficient ways to do this is to torture them until they give up their daily-regenerated point of Essence. Pony up quickly, and you're let off the rack. Outside of that, quality of afterlife varies between Principalities and the individual shade's luck; many find themselves used as target practice in infernal battlefields or guinea pigs in infernal labs, and the luckless souls sent to Abaddon can expect little beyond having their souls torn apart to fuel the local Prince's necromantic experiments, but others can achieve positions of relative comfort, if not a lot of respect, within the organizations of their ruling Princes. In appearance, Sheol, the realm of the Demon Prince of Fire, is the fiery, smoking vision of Hell that mortals often fear. A massive volcano sits in its center, constantly streaming with lava and wracked by eruptions that send fiery debris raining down; rivers of fire and molten rock crawl away from it and across the landscape, while clouds of smoke and ash choke the skies. Scattered across Sheol are more familiar landscapes — cities, forests, valleys and the like — but all burning, constantly rebuilt just to be set on fire. Belial's destructive, pyromaniac demons love it there; the souls of the damned are left to cling to shelves of barren rock, choking on smoke and ash, wincing from the flying cinders, dodging volcanic debris, and trying not to be captured by gangs of demons eager to extract essence from them by methods involving the creative use of live coals, heated pokers and napalm. |

Tom and Jerry: In "Heavenly Puss", Tom is apparently killed and is unable to gain passage on the Heavenly Express due to his constant persecution of Jerry. He is given a chance to redeem himself by getting Jerry to sign a certificate of forgiveness, but he only has an hour to do it, or else. Tom is shown a monitor which shows a fire-and-brimstone Hell with a devil version of Spike the bulldog calling out "Give him to me now! Send him down!" In the end, it turns out to be All Just a Dream. | |

AMBER: Journeys Beyond: One of the ghosts you help out is a crazed, UFO-obsessed gardener named Brice, who killed a girl he had been stalking for some time, prior to killing himself out of grief. When Brice figures this out, he suddenly hears what he thinks is a UFO arriving, complete with lights going out. But as he opens a hatch to investigate, his soul is dragged away — along with the hatch — into a firey-orange vortex of thunderclouds. | |

South Park bounces between this and not being so bad. It's just that Satan's an Affably Evil Punch-Clock Villain who gets along with God (and he's gay). He tortured people, but you get the feeling it's really his job. His boyfriend, Saddam Hussein, on the other hand... Satan frequently hosts parties, too — even a Christmas celebration! Also, because this show's Fluffy Cloud Heaven is reserved only for Mormons, plenty of good people show up here. In fact, Heaven's actually extremely dull, crossing this Hell over with A Hell of a Time. Once Saddam Hussein was even sent to Heaven because he didn't consider Hell much of a punishment. Eternity with a bunch of Mormons on the other hand... |

Casey and Andy: Affirmed and subverted. Hell is a realm of sulfur, fire, and brimstone. However, since Satan is in rebellion against God, she sees no reason to torture souls whose only crime is disobeying God. The only souls she tortures are those who have ticked her off personally. (Which includes Adolf Hitler, who just ticks a lot of people off for some reason.) | |

Doom: Throughout all titles in the series, Hell is depicted as a grisly mix of a volcanic landscape and a fleshy, bloody dimension. Lava is not quite as common as blood or nukage, but it's more damaging by a good margin, and glowing molten rock is often a hazard as well. | |

Family Guy: "Holy Crap" has a scene where Peter imagines being in Hell where he meets Adolf Hitler, Al Capone, John Wilkes Booth, and... Superman, who's in there for killing a hooker. "Stewie B. Goode": In a brief scene, Stewie is trapped in Hell, represented by a motel room with Steve Allen. Just as Steve starts to take off his shirt and says, "Alright, let's do this," Stewie wakes up, having had a near-death experience. Averted when it's shown that Allen just wanted him to help fix his shirt. Then Allen turns on the TV and discovers that they show nothing but Who's the Boss? reruns. "Peter's Daughter" has a variant for dogs, showing Satan taunting the dogs by using a vacuum, which dogs are known to hate. "Dial Meg for Murder": Goofy appears there for being involved in the September 11th attacks. After getting killed by Stewie, Vern and Johnny reappear, Vern as a ghost, and Johnny in Hell. Vern's explanation? "Johnny liked little boys." |

ULTRAKILL: The Heresy Layer is the closest thing the game has to a typical depiction of Hell, resembling a gothic black cathedral shrouded in blazing red light. Crimson windows and goat skull symbols cover the layer's surfaces, its bloody red doors are filled with the agonizing souls of heretics, its dark hallways are filled with red fog, a blazing red sky looms over the horizon, and it's raining blood in the City of Dis. Its first level also contains a Lava Pit in one of its arenas, and the level's intro central room contains a giant bleeding skeleton that's hung upside-down. In conclusion, Heresy is the most sinister-looking Layer in the game, donning a demonic red and black color scheme while welcoming you with a dreadful drone as soon as you make your first entrance to the Layer. | |

Infernum is set entirely in this sort of Hell. Demons torment souls to extract a substance called "iliaster", which is food and drink to them, and it is not a pleasant place. It's not all fire and flames, though — in fact, as Hell technically consists of a whopping huge crater punched by the crashlanding of the Fallen Angels, fire and flames are actually a minority. Starting on the surface and going down the nine "Circles" of Hell, you have lifeless desert (Emptiness), icy mountains locked under perpetual thunderstorms (Tempest), swamps and mires and mudflats (Tears), volcanic badlands (Toil), war-scarred wastes (Slaughter), urbanized ruins (Industry), lush jungles sharing borders with a river of flame and a desert (Delight), a massive volcanic range (Malebolge) and an eternally shifting city (Pandemonium). And that's not getting into other notorious landmarks, like the river Cocytus, a river of unnaturally cold jet-black ice that emerges from beneath the volcanoes of Malebolge and forms a barrier around Pandemonium... and the demons want to know just how that works too. | |
