Place of Torment is a term used to describe a location where punishment and suffering are inflicted upon those who have committed wrongdoings. Gehenna, HELL, and INFERNO are three words that are often used to refer to this type of place. Gehenna is derived from the Hebrew word for 'valley of Hinnom' and is mentioned in the Bible as a place of destruction and judgment. HELL is a term used in many religions to refer to a place of punishment and suffering after death. INFERNO is an Italian word meaning 'HELL' or 'hellfire' and is often used to describe a place of eternal damnation.
