There many like being burnt alive for eternity, rolling a bolder up a mountain only to have it fall once you reach the top and standing in a lake with fruit over head but every time you try and eat the food moves away.

Did the Norse goddess ''Hel'' lead up to the origin of the word ''Hell''?

The Online Etymoogy Dictionary suggests that the English word may be in part from Hel, in Norse mythology Loki's daughter, who rules over the evil dead in Niflheim, the lowest of the underworlds. The Germanic/Norse word "Hel" for the underworld was used in the King James Bible to translate Old Testament Hebrew "Sheol" and New testament Greek "Hades" and "Gehenna", thus happily mingling and confusing Greek, Palestinian and North German folklore. Gehenna was a Greek corruption of the Hebrew for "the Valley of Hinnom," southwest of Jerusalem, where, according to Jer. xix.5, children were sacrificed to Moloch. Haides was (in Homer's writings) the name of the Greek god of the underworld, and the underworld itself.

Is there any sexual harrasment when hades get persephone?

In Greek mythology, the story of Hades abducting Persephone does involve an element of non-consent as Persephone is taken to the Underworld against her will.

Heracles rescued his wife from the land of the dead...?

No, Heracles never rescues his wife from the land of the dead, except in the Disney movie. The myth you're thinking of is Orpheus and Eurydice, and Orpheus doesn't quite manage to rescue his wife. Orpheus was a great musician whose wife died after being bitten by a snake. He travels to the underworld to rescue her, and Hades, the god of the underworld, is so impressed by his musical talent that he allows Orpheus to lead Eurydice back to the land of the living, with the condition that Orpheus doesn't look back to make sure Eurydice is there. Orpheus manages to almost get out of the underworld, but he begins to doubt that Hades gave him Eurydice at all, so he looks back. Eurydice was following him, but since Orpheus broke the terms of the deal by looking back, Eurydice had to return to the underworld.
