"Hades never denotes the physical grave nor is it the permanent
region of the lost. It is the intermediate state between death and the
ultimate hell, Gehenna. Christ declares that he has the keys of Hades
(Rev. 1:18). In Rev. 6:8 it is personified with the meaning of the
temporary destiny of the doomed; it is to give up those who are in it
(Rev. 20:13), and is to be cast into the lake of fire (Rev. 20:14)."
"Gehenna
is conceived of as a fire (Matt. 5:22; 18:9); an unquenchable fire
(Mark 9:45); a place where "their worm dieth not, and the fire is not
quenched" (Mark 9:48); a "furnace of fire" (Matt. 13:42, 50); "the outer
darkness" (Matt. 8:12; 2:13; 25:30); a "lake of fire" (Rev. 19:20;
20:20, 14-15; 21:8)."

HELL: The place of eternal torment reserved for unbelievers. Sheol, a Hebrew word rendered as "hell" in the O.T., corresponds to the Greek words Hades, which means "unseen underworld" or "place of the dead." In the N.T. both Hades and Gehenna are rendered as "hell." Gehenna is derived from the Valley of Hinnom, a site for heathen worship that became a dumping ground near Jerusalem where filth and dead animals were burned;hence hell's association with the final state of lost souls in a place of eternal fire (Mark 9:47-48). Hell is described as a "lake of fire" (Rev. 19:20), "everlasting destruction" (2 Thess. 1:9), and the "second death" (Rev. 20:14).
FINAL JUDGMENT: The final judgment of unbelievers of all ages. The final judgment is called a day of wrath for unbelievers (Rom. 2:5-8) but a day when believers will enter into eternal life (Rom. 2:7). The Lord will appear suddenly to gather His elect (Matt. 24:32, 42) and to separate unbelievers for judgment (Matt. 25:31-33). We should be prepared for this time (1 Thess. 5:1-9) and eavoid self-deception regarding God's final judgment (Matt. 7:21-27).
LAKE OF FIRE: The place of final punishment. Filled with burning brimstone (Rev. 19:20), this place is described as the "second death" (Rev. 20:14). Those consigned to the lake of fire include Satan (Rev. 20:10), persons not named in the Book of Life (Rev. 20:15), and unbelieving sinners (Rev. 21:8).

Jesus spoke twice as much about hell than He did about heaven. The following passages are pretty self-explanatory in regard to hell.
"And if your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life crippled, than having your two hands, to go into hell (γεενναν), into the unquenchable fire" (Mark 9:43)
"where THEIR WORM DOES NOT DIE, AND THE FIRE IS NOT QUENCHED" (Mark 9:44, cf. Isaiah 66:16)
"And if your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life lame, than having your two feet, to be cast into hell (γεενναν)" (Mark 9:45)
"where THEIR WORM DOES NOT DIE, AND THE FIRE IS NOT QUENCHED" (Mark 9:46, cf. Isaiah 66:16)
"And if your eye causes you to stumble, cast it out; it is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes, to be cast into hell (γεενναν)" (Mark 9:47)
"where THEIR WORM DOES NOT DIE, AND THE FIRE IS NOT QUENCHED" (Mark 9:48, cf. Isaiah 66:16)
"but the sons of the kingdom shall be cast out into the outer darkness; in that place there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth" (Matthew 8:12)
"and will cast them into the furnace of fire; in that place there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth" (Matthew 13:42)
"Then the king said to the servants, 'Bind him hand and foot, and cast him into the outer darkness; in that place there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth" (Matthew 22:13)
"and shall cut him in pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites; weeping shall be there and the gnashing of teeth" (Matthew 24:51)
"And cast out the worthless slave into the outer darkness; in that place there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth" (Matthew 25:30)
"There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth there when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but yourselves being cast out" (Luke 13:28)
"And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life" (Matthew 25:46)
"And these will pay the penalty of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power" (2 Thessalonians 1:9)
"of instruction about washings, and laying on of hands, and the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment" (Hebrews 6:2)
"These are springs without water, and mists driven by a storm, for whom the black darkness has been reserved" (2 Peter 2:17)
"wild waves of the sea, casting up their own shame like foam; wandering stars, for whom the black darkness has been reserved forever" (Jude 1:13)
"And the beast was seized, and with him the false prophet who performed the signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image; these two were thrown alive into the lake of fire which burns with brimstone" (Revelation 19:20)
"And the devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are also; and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever" (Revelation 20:10)
"But for the cowardly and unbelieving and abominable and murderers and immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death" (Revelation 21:8)
