In the Bible Hell is nothing but a pit of fire that the sinners are thrown into on Judgement day. I am not an expert on the Bible and I have not read the whole thing so it could also mention a place souls go to before judgement day which is where Dante visited with Virgil in The Divine Comedy.

Sorry, but this is impossible since what you are describing is a perpetual motion machine in which Hell is the machine.
I think that Hell is a place where things that are unthinkably torturous happen where bothe fire and cie exist, which has a limited amount of energy able to last at least up to the very day God decides to rain judgement on everyone ever to exist.
But who says Hell is the only horrifying place we go to after death? The Bible also mentions Hades and Death as holding prisoners till the end of time. (discovered that myself)
I don't understand how anyone can talk about Hell without including at least a little religion.
