Don't fall for the fear that the Christians sell. I know it can be hard if you're in an environment where you're preached to by people trying to save your soul all the time. Forget the bible, forget religion, look within your heart for the truth. Everything you need to know is already within you.
Maybe your disbelief in God is a disbelief in the Christian God. There are many of us that are not able to follow that path. Here's a link to an on-line test you can take that will help you determine if your beliefs fall within a religion that you may have not heard of before. It can be such a relief to find out that other people believe the same way you do. Give it a try.
Good luck on your journey
Bright blessings

Ah ... there is no "hell" per say. At worst "Hell" is separation from the Devinne, and I doubt of that is going to happen to you. By your own words it frightens you, so as such the fear is registered within your "soul" and will allow you, or home you, in on "God" (or Good/Light/Love) when the time comes for you to cross over. What you, and I, have been taught concerning hell is the Church's nonsense to keep people in line. It is based on a Greek Myth.

See, that's what religion was intended to do. Control of the masses through fear. Why would god if it exists need anything? Why would he want to scare the **** out of everyone? Why would he condemn his precious creations to hell? Why would he let such dreadful things happen to people? Just doesn't add up does it? Don't believe in hell, be a free thinker. If there is a higher power surely he/she/it has to be much better than that. Otherwise they aren't any better than most of us, in fact far worse.
Be happy.

How is it you believe in Hell, but not God? The only way to get to hell is to blaspheme the Holy Ghost...that's not to say you can do anything you want and get away with it. There are consequences to your action (or inaction). Do you think you are here just for the party? Better read the book...there will be a test. Oh, and if you are so "terrified" why don't you do something about it? I'd rather believe in God and be wrong, than not believe in him...and be wrong. Ya know?

Darling it's been programmed into you, and has occupied a place in your mind that it doesn't deserve. The modern concept of Hell didn't even exist till after Jesus. No God could possibly be crueler than me, and I wouldn't send someone to Hell. If you want to avoid Hell then stop thinking about it, because it resides in your mind alone.

Many people have written that yes you will go to hell. Others have written that the truth inside of you, that hell is a creation of the mind. I want to tell you that yes there is a hell, but don't let that fear of hell scare. There is a God. He loves you. He is not there to condemn you to death. God says in the Bible that he wishes none to perish, but yet people still reject. God is not a god of condemnation but a god of Love. Dont be scare into accepting something, but understand that I am not coming to you as "Christian," but as someone who wants you to understand there is a God who does love you. He wants to know you. He wants to take your fears away and walk with you. You are not alone.

Hell is not real. It is made up from the worst of human fears to make people behave certain ways. It is fear of what you don't know and fed by people who tell you thinks they believe but have ZERO proof of.
There is no hell other than what people make up. Live your life here and nwo and stop being afraid of made up things - there is pleanty here to fear. Work on making life better now and when you die hopefully people will smile when they remember you.
Anything else is out of fear or selfishness.

Even if you dont believe in God, The earlier bibles state that hell is death. Its not a place that you think. It says Hell is death and Heaven is eternal life, but I think Earth is hell.

Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved.
For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have eternal life
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in thy heart that God hath raised him from the dead thou shall be saved.
You must realize that there is nothing you can do to merit heaven. It is a gift of God. For by grace are you saved . Bow your head and ask Jesus to save you. This is the only way.
Call the pastor of a bible believing church and ask him this question. He will be most happy to help you. I go to an independent Baptist church, so that is what I recommend to you.
You will notice from the above scriptures that to believe in Jesus Christ you must also believe in God. They are one and the same. Do it before it is too late

Does not the same reason you don't believe in "God" apply to "Hell" too?
On a different level, you know there are serial killers out there, you know they are real, but do you fear every stranger you come across in your life that he / she might be serial killer and would harm you?
Is that fear of Hell justified, or just superstition?
