* In ''Manga/ChainsawMan'', Hell is an EldritchLocation where Devils reside, but due to the OurDemonsAreDifferent nature of the setting it's not actually shown to be an afterlife for humans. It's based on the Buddhist idea of other realms you cycle between from life-to-life but this only seems to apply to devils, as any Devil that dies in Hell [[ResurrectiveImmortality resurrects on Earth]] and vice-versa.

* Music/InsaneClownPosse rap about Hell and its inhabitants on a regular basis, since their "Joker's Cards" ConceptAlbum cycle are about death and the afterlife. The album ''Hell's Pit'' is, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin as the title implies]], entirely about Hell and the damned. The opening track is even someone dying and falling into Hell's Pit.

The current name comes from [[Characters/NorseMythology Hel]] the Myth/{{Norse|Mythology}} goddess and ruler of her same-named [[TheUnderworld Underworld]], for the same confusing reasons that the English days of the week are a mix of Norse and Roman names. In Greek versions of the [[Literature/TheBible Christian Bible]], the aforementioned Underworld is even referred to as [[Characters/ClassicalMythologyOlympians Hades]] from Myth/ClassicalMythology, with the Hebrew version being [[TheNothingAfterDeath Sheol]]. As the joke goes, this is explained by some faiths having so many sinners that they've had to export them to other religions. Granted, Sheol/Hades is presented Biblically as a temporary state of {{Purgatory|AndLimbo}}, and not synonymous with the eternal [[FireAndBrimstoneHell Lake of Fire]] known in Greek by the metaphor "Gehenna" (also called "Abaddon").
