The "Nine Circles of Hell" is a construct created by Dante Alighieri for his "Divine Comedy" to allow him to try to describe what he thought Hell might be like.
It has no prior basis in theology or tradition.

There is a holding place mentioned in the scriptures for those who have not repented and received God's mercy offered through the Blood of Jesus Christ. This "holding place" is like a "Federal Penitentiary" for those who are waiting to stand before the Almighty Judge of mankind - it is called "Hades" or "Hell." Once each of Hell's occupants stand before the Judge, the scriptures declare "And death and hell were cast into the Lake of Fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the Lake of Fire." (Revelation 20:14 - 15)
Hell Below Zero was created in 1954.
Hell is a place where the wrong are held there for final judgment. And they are supossedly ripped apart before their judgment some signs of this more likely symbolize passing from flesh to soul. Hell is where you go when you die if you are not a christain. You become a christain by believing in God and that Jesus die on the cross for your sins and rose from the dead in three days. You have to admit you have done some bad stuff, choose to become a christain, follow God, and make Him Lord of your life.

Beatrice.
In Dante Alighieri's Divina Commedia there are nine circles of Hell. Allegorically, the Inferno represents the Christian soul seeing sin for what it really is, and the three beasts (a lion, a leopard, and a she-wolf) represent three types of sin: the self-indulgent, the violent, and the malicious. These three types of sin also provide the three main divisions of Dante's Hell: Upper Hell (the first 5 Circles) for the self-indulgent sins; Circles 6 and 7 for the violent sins; and Circles 8 and 9 for the malicious sins.
