Dante’s Nine Circles of Hell Recreated Using LEGOs
One of the most terrifying yet enduring visions of Hell is Dante Alighieri’s “Inferno“, which is an allegory tale that follows the author as he is accompanied by the Roman poet Virgil on a tour through the fiery pits. It’s an incredibly imaginative and terrifying work that has been around since the 14th century, becoming a timeless classic.
Coming to today, Romanian artist Mihai Mihu, who uses LEGOs to create amazing but also somewhat terrifying pieces of art, has posted photos where he took Dante’s nine circles of Hell and recreated them using the child building block toys. The final result is something that I would absolutely put on my mantle as an art collective. If you’re a fan of the book or even the visual aesthetics of the EA video game, this is something you’ll want to check out.
Below is the gallery and I’ve also included an infographic that explains each level. You can see more of Mihu’s work on his Flickr Page.

‘Dead Mail’ Exclusive Images: SXSW Horror Movie Begins With a Blood-Stained Postal Box Delivery
One of the genre films we’re looking forward to checking out at SXSW this year is Dead Mail, written and directed by Joe DeBoer and Kyle McConaghy and premiering on March 9.
Meagan Navarro will be reviewing Dead Mail for Bloody Disgusting as part of her SXSW coverage, and she writes in her preview for the upcoming fest: “Dead Mail leans heavily into the ’80s analog aesthetic, delivering a unique crime thriller unafraid to get offbeat with its dark narrative. Expect its characters to be as atypical as Dead Mail‘s sense of style.”
In the SXSW 2024 horror film…
“On a desolate, Midwestern county road, a bound man crawls towards a remote postal box, managing to slide a blood-stained plea-for-help message into the slot before a panicking figure closes in behind him. The note makes its way to the county post office and onto the desk of Jasper, a seasoned and skilled “dead letter” investigator, responsible for investigating lost mail and returning it to its sender. As he investigates further, Jasper meets Trent, a strange yet unassuming man who has taken up residence at the men’s home where Jasper lives.
“When Trent unexpectedly shows up at Jasper’s office, it becomes clear he has a vested interest in the note, and will stop at nothing to retrieve it…”
Sterling Macer, Jr., John Fleck, Susan Priver, Micki Jackson, Tomas Boykin, and Nick Heyman star in Dead Mail. Preview the film with an exclusive image gallery below.
