#article 75

First, note that Hell is very very big and composed of not only different realms on the astral, but that there are also various locations. Think of Hell like a bunch of planets, rather than one singular place. (Also nah you weren’t being rude, it’s chill.)  

Now to your question, I did in fact have a past life in Hell. It was in the Deep Underground, and I was forced into the military under one of the Goetic Marquises. I have a separate post on that and deep underground goetic hell right here. But while that post was particular to that location, here is a summary of what I know/theorize about the different locations: 

NOTE that I am referring to Hell as multiple astral locations, and not simply as the meaning of “punishment realms” (punishment realms are actually a very wide concept present in many cultures, not just within the Abrahamic paradigm) 

SPG BEGIN: 

Hell’s Different Locations/Aspects: 

Above Ground Hell: 

This portion is much nicer than the below-ground portions. Many demons here look more humanoid, and have morals and society on-par with humans. So yes there’s war, but it’s not a constant slaughter like it is in the lower levels; there is a decent sense of right/wrong here. Good laws exist and are enforced, and societies are rather equal. There are cities, beaches, forests, mountains; it really looks quite similar to Earth. 

Goetics have offices here as well, and this is where they are more polite, cordial, and hold their grand parties. 

Types of Demons that reside here: Lavartum demons, the nicer versions of the Goetic Demons. 

Underground: Upper Hell

Still rather peaceful. The dirt here is reddish in color but paler than in the lower levels. The ceilings here are shorter, and the air is easier to breathe as it is closer to the surface. Some parts of this area of Hell connect to the Lowborn demon realms. There are many peaceful settlements up here who sought to escape the lawful evil destruction of the Deep hell level. 

Types of Demons that reside here: Ex-Mid/Deep Hell demons, Lowborn demons who left their realm

Mid-Hell Craters:

There are areas of Hell where there are massive craters that reach all the way to where Mid-Hell (thus technically not being underground?). Sunlight can reach down these massive craters; and I really do mean MASSIVE craters as entire cities/civilizations can be fit in here. There’s grasslands, forests, etc in these giant holes. On average, societies here have more advanced technology than humans, and morals similar to humans. 

Type of Demons that reside here: Lavartum (some but not all) 

Underground: Mid-Hell

I have not been somewhere I would classify as “mid-hell”, but I imagine it gets more and more chaotic as you go deeper. It would also most likely start getting much darker and more difficult to breathe. 

@hecaatia would be able to tell more. 

Types of Demons that reside here: ????

Underground: Deep Hell

This is the most corrupt and chaotic of the Hell layers. This is where many Goetics shed their cordial mask, and have wars simply for fun. This is the portion that smells like sulphur, has hard to breathe air, and lava pits. Also all of the flora and fauna want to kill you. It is extremely chaotic here; survival of the fittest^2 because everything is constantly fighting each other, fight everything and everyone 24/7 for whatever reason.

Underground: Trench Hell

Think of the trenches here on Earth. Super dark. Some are filled with void energy made physical due to the density of it, while others are filled with lava. There is a high concentration of void, and sometimes Eldritch energies, within these trenches. 

The trenches can lead to the center(s?) of Hell; thanks to @hecaatia for the contribution! They can also lead to the voidspace around Hell, be pathways/liminal spaces for reaching it. 

Types of Demons that reside here: Void beings, Eldritch Beings, General abyssal creatures

Underground: Center(s?) of Hell

The centers are large, spherical rooms that contain the core. The cores look like big spheres of fire, and will vaporize anything that gets too close without the proper magical protections, no matter how powerful that being is. (ty @hecaatia again!) 

Types of Demons that live here: Nothing. Nothing can survive here. 

Hell’s Voidspace

A voidspace is the void around a certain astral place. The hell voidspace has very, very intense/heavy void energy. At least, around the lower layers. The voidspace gets softer as you go nearer to the more surface-levels of Hell. Some concentrated veins of void energy run from the voidspace and lower levels to the upper levels, but the energy is usually kept within temples. 

Thanks to @sordhent and @myotishia for the info!

Types of Entities that live here: Void beings, eldritch beings 

-SPG end- 

Now, I also wanted to talk about Christian/Catholic/Abrahamic Hell- but note besides what I say that is also in the books, this is OBVIOUUSSLLYYYYY UPG

Christian/Catholic/Abrahamic Hell

I theorize that those portions of Hell spoken about in the books may be non-physical in nature, but layered close to Deep Hell. This is because in this Hell lore, this takes place after death- humans are still ghosts and are still considered dead- and death is the state of being booted from your physical body you were born into- so it is unlikely to be a physical realm. 

I would not be surprised if the actual location(s) existed, as my paradigm tries to avoid mutual exclusivity.  It is likely that they exist, since they were written about so much. However, to the question of if people actually go there when they die- I can’t answer that because 1) I do not work within an Christian/Catholic/etc paradigm, and 2) never been there and don’t want to. 

What about Purgatory? 

Still dunno, but I do theorize that Purgatory is non-physical in nature as well.
