John Milton
I find the image of Satan being bound by chains in the fiery lake to be particularly vivid in Milton's description of hell. This portrays a sense of confinement and torment that is physically and emotionally intense.
A dungeon horrible on all sides, no light but rather darkness visible
In John Milton's "Paradise Lost," when Satan revives in Hell, he speaks to his fallen angels, who have been transformed into his followers. Satan addresses them to discuss their next course of action and to inspire them in their rebellion against God.
Pandemonium was the capital of Hell in Milton's Paradise Lost and has come to mean any site of wild disorder, noise, or confusion.

Actually, yes and no. There is a town called Milton, and it was once known as Hell, as well as Scratch Ankle. It was named Hell, because when people first began to settle in the area, it was hot and muggy, lots of bugs and briars. That's also where the name Scratch Ankle came into play also. Years later, a saw mill was brought to the area, and the name changed to Mill Town, then simplified to Milton. On a funny note, Milton is also close to Bagdad, Florida.
