Hades ruled the underworld so I would think anyone who didn't want to be his bad side or someone on their death bed also he was an evil god that was told to be the god of the underworld by his older brother zeus. :)
There are some people that do still believe in and worship Him. So, in that sense, yes He does have a connection with the modern world. Hades is a God of death and wealth. Those are two things that will always remain constant in any society, death and money.
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.
Hades is the god of death and the dead; death scares people.
No. Some people mistake Hades for hell, but they are not the same thing.
Prayer, sacrifice, and offering, but Hades was rarely worshiped.
because if you worship him then i guess you'll have a good afterlife. after all, he is the god of the underworld and the lord of the dead! ;)
Not everyone stopped believing in Him. There are still quite a few people that believe in and worship Him.
People that still follow the worship and praise of the Greek Gods, followers of Hades in particular. The dead are particularly influenced by Him, because death is an inevitability for everyone.
Because he always played with toys and many people didn't play with toys so they didn't like him.
Where ever they happen to be at the time, or in personally made altars. There was a temple, that's ruins still exist in Greece, dedicated to Hades and Persephone called the Necromanteion.
Of the worship of him in ancient Greece? Yes. Of him actually existing? No.

There are some people that believe Hades to be real, and still worship Him even today. He was very much believed in during the reign of the Greek Gods.

Hades was good at delivering people to hell.
