Hell


 * For the Delta Quadrant planet or the Paramount Studios set, see Planet Hell.

Hell is the underworld in some ancient Human religions, ruled by a figure called the Devil. It was believed people would be sent here after their death, if they did not adhere to the religion's code.

A fabled location similar to Hell is Hell-Fire. 

In the 17th century, John Milton of Earth wrote in his poem Paradise Lost that "It is better to rule in Hell than serve in Heaven."

In 2267, Matthew Decker considered that the Planet killer came "Right out of Hell". 

The Klingon Gre'thor also resembles Human Hell, and is the place in afterlife where dishonorable warriors are brought. 

Joseph Sisko often told his son, Benjamin Sisko, that "the road to Hell is paved with good intentions." 

The word "Hell" is often used in Terran vernacular as an epithet, as in an exclamation that Captain James T. Kirk used at least once; "Let's get the Hell out of here."
