<shrug> None of the known Hells are "the" Hell. Though Mephisto will sometimes pretend to be "the" Devil just to mess with people.

Anyway, you end up spending your afterlife with Mephisto by making deals with him and/or otherwise positively corrupting yourself. Maybe giving in to despair too but not because some heavenly travel agency booked you there.

It's not like DC which has what seems to be a Judeo-Christian "Heaven" and a more or less as described Hell as contrast. "Real" Angels too.
