Mormons ..... The answer is Mormons ..... Although many Christian churches don't consider them Christian, the Mormons (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints) believe that Christ visited the souls that were in hell in order to take the Gospel to all who had not had the opportunity to accept him in life. Furthermore, they believe this "missionary" work, instigated by Him, still continues.
Their belief is that this finalizes His victory over sin, in that all human souls will eventually hear of His name and His salvation.
It's actually a very interesting belief, in that it ties together loose ends in the Bible (Baptism for the Dead, God is no Respecter of Persons, God is Just, God is Merciful) ... If Christ actually did take the Gospel to the Spirits in Hell, then He may actually represent a believable, merciful, and completely just God.

(Acts 10:40-41) . . .God raised this One up on the third day and granted him to become manifest, 41 not to all the people, but to witnesses appointed beforehand by God, to us, who ate and drank with him after his rising from the dead.
(Acts 3:15) 15 whereas YOU killed the Chief Agent of life. But God raised him up from the dead, of which fact we are witnesses.
(1 Peter 3:18-19) . . .Why, even Christ died once for all time concerning sins, a righteous [person] for unrighteous ones, that he might lead YOU to God, he being put to death in the flesh, but being made alive in the spirit. 19 In this [state] also he went his way and preached to the spirits in prison,
So after he was resurrected he preached to the angels that were in prison: see (Jude 6) 6 And the angels that did not keep their original position but forsook their own proper dwelling place he has reserved with eternal bonds under dense darkness for the judgment of the great day.
