He sure was!
Hades was worshipped out of fear of the people that worshipped him. They prayed that he wouldn't take them away or anything.
Hades was the god of the underworld and the death, also the god of the riches of Earth. His name was avoided for not calling his attention and when prayed to, for the dead or for avoiding a death, sacrifices were made for compensation

The ride it goes underneath the Mount Olympus (theme park) parking lot to do a couple of turns and then it goes back underneath the parking lot back into the amusement park. Hades was not only the name of the god of the underworld, but also the underworld itself. Hades lived in the Hades (underground) and the ride goes under the ground (and Mount Olympus) too.
Yes, probably. A person could pray to whoever they wanted to depending on what they needed. Zeus was probably was prayed to alot also because he is the "top god"
Most Greeks were afraid of Hades and would not even so much as mention His name as not to call His attention to them. However, He is still a God and was still revered and worshiped as such. There is a temple built to Hades and Persephone called the Necromanteion. People would often sacrifice black animals to Hades, usually a black bull. And when they prayed to Him they wold bang their heads on the ground as to make sure their prayers were heard.
The Ancient Greeks prayed to Hades because they believed that if he saw that they worshipped him, he would pay them great respect when they died and their souls traveled to the Underworld.
There are a lot of ancient poems, and more modern interpretations. There is even a music artiest calling themselves 'Hades'.
Hades looked a lot like Zeus and Poseidon (his brothers). His features are rather gloomy, his hair usually falls past his eyes and he had a beard.
Eliezer, in the Bible, prayed to find a suitable wife for Isaac as he was Abraham's servant. He cried during his prayer as a sign of the seriousness and sincerity of his request to God for guidance in finding the right woman for Isaac.
