I know neither mass nor light can escape the hold of a black hole. But does that mean time ceases to exist?

Not really sure... the whole concept of a black hole is just too much for me to understand. I do believe though, that many of my Physics teachers believed that time slowed down vastly or just plain stopped near the center of a black hole.

You cannot prove anything but... It has been said that time slows the closer and closer you get to the center of a black hole and when you get to the direct middle of it time will stop.. Its the same as The fact that gravity in the direct center of the earth is 0 whereas sea level is 9.8

Time exists in a black hole. Black hole is about heavy mass with heavy gravity. Nothing else.

Honestly, I'm not sure. The concept is difficult for me to grasp. But from what I understand, a black hole is like a vacuum. Nothing can escape it.....and nobody really knows what's actually inside it.....if anything.
Does anything exist in a vacuum?

No time stops at the very center of the orb they farther you get away from the center of the orb the faster time speeds up

because of the fact the black hollow is so dense no longer even gentle can escape it as quickly as the object is previous the form horizon then no gentle is won from the object so which you will possibly in no way get to the element the place you should ascertain it land.

Time is a human construct and does not actually exist

i think black hole is like a portal to another dimension or universe

Time just slows down.
