Dante’s Inferno tells the story of the poet’s fictionalised descent into hell, where he is guided by the ancient Roman poet Virgil.

Hell is depicted as nine concentric circles of torment located within the earth. Satan himself resides there. After escaping hell, Dante and Virgil will go on to purgatory and then Dante will go to heaven. Well, the reason I’m telling you this is because I have been to hell. I have visited the concentric circles of torment, but in my journey there was only a mere eight circles to endure.
