Where to go to Hell.

In my wanderings of the internet yesterday, I came across this article, which is somewhat appropriate for tonight's movie. Should one of the characters of Drag Me to Hell make the titular request, they'll have three lovely vacation choices right here on Earth, none of which involve brimstone (though it might be fun to skate across a frozen lake of blood and guilt on in the 9th circle.)
According to mental_floss, there are 3 Hells on Earth (other than a phlebotomist's waiting room [just kidding Mel.]):

• Hell, Grand Cayman.

Located just north of Seven Mile Beach, the main attraction in Grand Cayman’s tiny Hell community is a jagged black rock formation called phytokarst – formed by the biological erosion of limestone and dolomite by algae – surrounded by tropical flora. According to legend, an Englishman visiting Grand Cayman in the 1930s attempted to shoot a bird over the rock formation, missed, and cried, “Oh, hell!” The name stuck.

• Hell, Michigan.

Hell, Mich., is located about 15 miles northwest of Ann Arbor, in Putnam Township. There are a couple of stories as to how the town got its name, but the most widely accepted version goes like this: Before his death in 1877, George Reeves, an early settler of the area who operated a flour mill and a whiskey distillery, was asked what he thought the town should be called. He responded, “Name it Hell for all I care.”

• Hell, Norway.

It’s actually quite common for Hell to freeze over in this small village in central Norway, about 200 miles north of Oslo. Temperatures in the Stjordal municipality occasionally dip below zero during the winter. The name Hell comes from the old Norwegian word hellir, which means a cave hidden by an overhanging cliff. In modern Norwegian, hellir means good luck.

So the next time someone tells you to go to Hell, don't get angry. Just remember that they're asking you to go to a lovely tropical Caribbean island.
