This story is not in the gospels. It was the author of 1 Peter who wrote of Jesus going down to preach to the prisoners in hell, at verse 3:18-19.
Jesus went to heaven after coming back from the dead and showing his diciples to continue to preach for him. JESUS WENT TO HEAVEN.The Orthodox position:Jesus descended into Hades (or hell) after His death, but before He ascended into Heaven. This was done in order to break the bonds of Satan and death, since Jesus has the keys to Hades (Revelation 1:18). This event caused the earth to quake and the graves to open and many people who had died were raised from the dead (Matthew 27:51-54).Icons of the Resurrection or Descent into Hades, depict Jesus taking the keys to Hades with Him to show that He has power over Satan and power over the living and the dead.

The mention of the "keys of hell" is found in the Book of Revelation 1:18, where Jesus declares that he holds the keys of death and Hades, symbolizing his power over life and death. This passage emphasizes Jesus' authority over the afterlife and his victory over sin and death through his resurrection.

The Bible clearly teaches that the dead go to their respective graves and know nothing (and do nothing), while the spirit in them returns to God for safekeeping - until the Resurrection to Judgment (see Ecclesiastes 12:7). Hades is commonly translated as 'grave' or common resting place of mankind upon death. There are some in Christianity that have interpreted 1 Peter 3:19 as Jesus speaking to the disobedient who have died before His time as a man. But a closer read of 1 Peter 3:18-22 will reveal that Jesus was in the Spirit speaking to the fallen angels (demons) in the time of Noah for reasons not fully explained.
