I know it's not "divinely inspired" but it is heavily influenced by God and the Bible.
Let's discuss and give a "What if Hell was like depicted in this work."
www.wikiwand.com
Reading and imaging this is one thing and likely many will get somewhat different interpretation. We (humans) learn best when we take in info multiple ways at once.
Reading. Writing. Listening. Seeing. Feeling. Doing.
Is there evidence for Hell? Not concrete 100% but there are some places and things that "suggest" it's existence. I recently started looking into the "Kola Bore Hole" in Russia.
It's a bit of a read but the info here is well worth it. In the section: "Nine Circles of Hell" you'll see many more examples of sin as well as the punishment for each in Hell.
The lowest level is where Satan is and given Pence's actions and others being traitors to their country.
"Antenora: the second round is named after Antenor, a Trojan soldier who betrayed his city to the Greeks. Here lie the Traitors to their Country: those who committed treason against political entities (parties, cities, or countries) have their heads above the ice, but they cannot bend their necks."
We know there is few descriptors of Hell in the Bible.
Various movies have been made, though dated wouldn't have a good effect.
The idea of creating Hell has come to realization in two video games "Agony" and "Dante's Inferno".
Both are very graphic as they should be given the location of both.
"Ring 2: Violence Against Self: The second round of the seventh circle is the Wood of the Suicides, in which the souls of the people who attempted or died by suicide are transformed into gnarled, thorny trees and then fed upon by Harpies, hideous clawed birds with the faces of women; the trees are only permitted to speak when broken and bleeding.".
Sodom and Gomorrah ring a bell? - "Ring 3: Violence Against God, Art, and Nature: The third round of the seventh circle is a great Plain of Burning Sand scorched by great flakes of flame falling slowly down from the sky, an image derived from the fate of Sodom and Gomorrah (Gen. 19:24). The Blasphemers (the Violent against God) are stretched supine upon the burning sand, the Sodomites (the Violent against Nature) run in circles, while the Usurers (the Violent against Art, which is the Grandchild of God, as explained in Canto XI) crouch huddled and weeping. Ciardi writes, "Blasphemy, sodomy, and usury are all unnatural and sterile actions: thus the unbearing desert is the eternity of these sinners; and thus the rain, which in nature should be fertile and cool, descends as fire".
IDK about any of you but if text alone doesn't scare you about Hell, it might be time to do a self-check.

Inferno (Dante) | Wikiwand
Inferno is the first part of Italian writer Dante Alighieri's 14th-century epic poem Divine Comedy. It is followed by Purgatorio and Paradiso. The Inferno describes Dante's journey through Hell, guided by the ancient Roman poet Virgil. In the poem, Hell is depicted as nine concentric circles of...
