Hell is a place that is not occupied right now, and will not be until after the Great White Throne judgment. It is a place prepared for Satan and his angels but humans who do not accept Christ will also be cast there for eternity. It is refered to as a "lake of fire" and "outer darkness", a place of "weeping and wailing, and knashing of teeth" , a place where "where THEIR WORM DOES NOT DIE, AND THE FIRE IS NOT QUENCHED." These descriptions are most likely symbolic, for example fire is consistently used in the Bible for judgment, whether or not there is literal fire, I'm not sure. It appears that hell is total and permanent separation from God. Since God is all that is right, just and loving all of that will be removed completely from mankind and he will be left in a state of utter despair with no good things at all.

The Bible describes three hells.
SHEOL OR HADES, THE FIRST HELL
The first term in Greek and Hebrew means the grave. It's the grave where the dead await the resurrection.
GENESIS 37:35---I SHALL GO DOWN INTO THE GRAVE.
PROVERBS 15:11--HELL & DESTRUCTION ARE BEFORE THE LORD.
ECCLES.9:10---NO WORK...OR KNOWLEDGE...IN THE GRAVE,
MATT.11:23---WILL BE BROUGHT DOWN TO HADES
1COR.15:55---O HADES, WHERE IS YOUR VICTORY
GEHENNA, THE SECOND HELL
The second term in New Testament means the place of fiery destruction of the wicked.
MATT.5:22--...BE IN DANGER OF HELL FIRE
MATT.10:28--TO DESTROY BOTH BODY AND SOUL IN HELL
TARTAROO, THE THIRD HELL
This third term is only used once and refers to the place of restraint where the demon spirits were placed following the rebellion against God.
2PETER 2:4---BUT CAST THEM DOWN TO HELL.

i am not sure i want to know the real answer to that question EVER. But I do belive that everyone has there own personal little place that they would like to call HELL when they are going through major stress or heartache or anything else difficult for that matter. It is the pain in your heart that you feel when something is stressful or too difficult to handle in my opinion.

The souls which do extremely bad works in their life are send to a place called hell after their life. There they are not kept forever, they are torchered for sometime and then sent back to world.

Hell is a nasty little Christian concept. It is where all of the souls of the "sinners" go when they die. They're tortured for all eternity by Satan.
Thank the Gods I'm Pagan and don't believe in such negative concepts.

Hell, according to many religious beliefs, is a place or a state of pain and suffering.
According to many religions, the afterlife affords evildoers to suffer eternally. In monotheistic religions, Hell is often populated by demons who torment the damned. The fallen angel Lucifer in Christian theology, otherwise known as Satan, is commonly portrayed in popular culture as the ruler of Hell. Others portray Hell as the final resting place of the Devil, prepared as his punishment by God Himself. Hell is also defined as an utter absence of God or redemptive force. Purgatory, as believed by Catholicism, is another place of torment for sinners who have ultimately achieved salvation but have not paid penance for the sins they have committed in their previous lives. Hell on the contrary is commonly believed to be for eternity with no chance of redemption or salvation for those who suffer there. Christian faith teaches it is a domain of boundless dimension, scope, and torment. Many monotheistic religions regard Hell as the absolute ultimate worst-case-scenario, per se.
In polytheistic religions, the politics of Hell can be as complicated as human politics. Many Hellenistic Neopagans believe in Tartarus, which may also be considered a version of Hell.
