| Not Afraid of Hell | comment |
Hell is one of the most terrifying experiences imaginable. An eternity of torment at the hands of either hideous demons or the weight of one's own sins is not something anyone should look forward to. You would think those sane enough to grasp the concept would do everything in their power to avoid such a terrible fate. Except these guys. They're not afraid of hell. Maybe they figure it won't be that bad, or that they'll be running it before long. Maybe they think Heaven is too blase or too stuffy. Maybe they're pissed off at God or enamored of Satan. Maybe they get a taste and like it, know it's unavoidable, think they can outwit the gods, decide that it's worth suffering for someone they love, or assume the afterlife isn't real anyway and don't care. Whatever the reason, these characters wouldn't have the slightest problem ending up where nobody in their right mind wants to end up. Note that this trope can be either speculative or literal depending on the beliefs of the person, meaning it's not just about a person's stance on damnation while alive and unroasting. If someone literally goes to hell and finds he can handle it just fine, that's this trope too. As long as you can say "I'm Going to Hell for This" without feeling bad, you should be good to go. Compare with the Hell Seeker, who wants to get into hell by any means; You Are Worth Hell, when someone deliberately decides to endure hell for someone else's sake; and See You in Hell, when somebody has prior arrangements. The Heaven Seeker may contrast this if he only wants to go to heaven to avoid damnation. This can be Truth in Television for atheists and other non-religious people, but due to the somewhat controversial nature of this trope, No Real Life Examples, Please!. |

Jack claims that he's just bluffing, only for Wes to retort that he already knows he's going to burn in hell, so he's not afraid to burn on Earth. | |

The Simpsons: The second-season episode "Bart Gets Hit by a Car" sees Bart sent prematurely to Hell, where he and Satan are rather cordial toward each other. He responds to the command "lie, cheat, steal and listen to heavy metal music" with a sincere "yes, sir!" Lisa no longer fears Hell after the fourth-season opener, "Kamp Krusty", because, as she states in a letter to Homer and Marge, "I have been to Kamp Krusty." She then describes the experience, comparing nature hikes to grim death marches, arts and crafts being no more than sweatshops, and – while Bart hangs on to fleeting, false hope that Krusty will come and make things right — pessimism that her letter will be delivered without being censored. (It actually is, but Homer and Marge think she's being hilariously overdramatic and don't take the complaints at all seriously.) In "Treehouse of Horror XXIV", the Fat in the Hat (Homer as a psychotic Cat in the Hat parody) is killed in self-defense by Maggie. As he lays dying, he states that he doesn't fear Hell, just being portrayed by Mike Myers in a movie. |

In The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Miss Watson—the stereotypical "spinster" sister of the much kinder Widow Douglas—tells Huck all about the Good Place and the Bad Place. Huck decides that he wouldn't mind going to the Bad Place because "Tom would be there too, and besides at the Good Place, all you do is play harp." It's also completely inverted in chapter 31: It's his belated conviction of the reality of The Bad Place that creates the impact of Huck's immortal line: |

The Italian dub of The Hunchback of Notre Dame changes the meaning of "Hellfire" to include this, altering the line "Choose me or / your pyre" to "Ti aspetto / all'Inferno" (I'll wait for you in Hell), implying Frollo knows his lust toward Esmeralda will damn him and doesn't care.

Arthur Trubshaw from Johannes Cabal the Necromancer qualifies for this. Essentially described as the most painfully bureaucratic man to ever live, he was originally a bank teller in the Old West who was shot by a robber after informing the latter that he needed a receipt before leaving. The inhabitants of Hell gleefully anticipated breaking his will and desire for order, but found that while they were gleefully planning this, he had written out schedules to best optimize the torture, made a time and motion study for them, and reorganized their underwear drawers. Satan looked at this and decided to make use of his obnoxious skills by converting the entrance to Hell into a gargantuan waiting room where incoming souls have to fill out thousands of pages of cryptically-worded paperwork happily written by Trubshaw. | |

In Dracula, according to one of the old sailors that frequented the cemetery, one of the tombs was built for someone who was more afraid of his mother than of hell: "I've often heard him say masel' that he hoped he'd go to hell, for his mother was so pious that she'd be sure to go to heaven, an' he didn't want to addle where she was." | |

Better to Reign in Heaven: In keeping with his nature as an unrepentant psychopath, Braun has no fear of what might await him after death, reasoning that there's honestly not much that he can do about divine judgement if such a thing exists, so he might as well enjoy himself while he has the chance. For good measure, he's also unafraid of death, even in the face of an imminent nuclear apocalypse. Appropriately enough, the heaven that he worked so hard to create ends up becoming his own private hell, not just because of the Chinese Invasion Failsafe, but because of the new visitors that Vault 112 ultimately attracts... | |

This trope is basically required for Umbra Witches in Bayonetta; in exchange for all the Stylish Action powers, an Umbra Witch enters a contract with a demon of their choice, promising their soul to Inferno once they die or otherwise terminate their contract. When Bayo's Umbran Watch breaks after the Final Boss of Bayonetta 3, she's less concerned about Madama Butterfly coming to collect than she is about Luka choosing to join her. | |

The entire plot of Planescape: Torment is caused by one man's attempt to deflect death because he knows he's Beyond Redemption and what awaits him won't be pretty. (In this setting, Hell is an actual physical location, and people know for certain that it exists.) His Character Development concerns him getting over his cowardice to become the trope. It helps that he's a Physical God by this point and Planescape's hell is a giant battlefield filled with Asshole Victims. The demons never know what hits them. | |

In Call of Duty: Zombies, four mobsters are trapped in an eternal purgatory as punishment for their sins in life (and to later serve another purpose for the purgatory's evil master). Mob boss Sal DeLuca, betting man Finn O'Leary, and serial killer for hire Billy Handsome all claim to be this trope. When they begin to realize the futility of their actions and that they're damned no matter what, they begin crowing about how they're not afraid to die. However, Sal and Finn's nerves begin to fail as the weight of their sentence really begins to settle in, and as Black Ops IV later revealed, the former led the group in writing confession letters to try to buy some leniency if not a remote chance of forgiveness to end their suffering. However, by the end of the Alcatraz arc, Billy is the only one who truly embodies this trope as he is bored writing his confession letter and is not seen among the spirits trying to help bring down Brutus at the end of Blood of the Dead, suggesting he doesn't mind where he's going. | |

World of Warcraft's Sylvanas Windrunner inverts this trope to the point of her entire motivation centering around her not wanting to return to the other side after catching a glimpse of it following a failed suicide attempt. She would rather break the entire cycle of life and death than end up in The Maw - a bleak realm of endless torment that serves as Warcraft's. | |

The South Park episode "Dead Celebrities" ends with everyone going to Hell, but they're only bothered by the fact that Hell is a tow-in gate. | |

Jacob's Ladder plays with this trope, implying that the only thing to fear about Hell (or the afterlife in general) is holding on too tightly to this one: | |

Doomguy isn't afraid of Hell. Hell is afraid of Doomguy. Literally so, in the case of Doom (2016). | |

In Dragon Ball Z, before Vegeta's Heroic Sacrifice to kill Majin Buu, he asks if he'll meet Goku in the afterlife. Piccolo points out he's not likely to get to go to the same place as Goku, because Goku lived a noble and heroic life while Vegeta didn't. Vegeta's response is a flippant "so be it." | |

In the Breaking Bad episode "Buyout", Walter White relays this sentiment to Jesse, claiming that, even if all their bad deeds over the course of the series have earned them their spots in Hell: "...I'm not going to lie down until I get there." | |

Hellsing: The Catholic Church's Iscariot Organization, dedicated to battling the forces of evil both mundane and supernatural, has no fear that their methods of doing so will most likely damn their souls to Hell. In fact, that's part of their plan: to show up in Hell en masse so they can overthrow and destroy it. | |

YuYu Hakusho: Toguro the Younger is given multiple options by Koenma as his sentence after he dies in the Dark Tournament Arc. Technically its not Hell, but his choice of Limbo implies this, as his sentence involves an unimaginable period of pain and suffering that even Koenma seems to think is severe given the circumstances. | |
