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.

We have an exclusive first look at A Man in the Woods With an Axe, a blood-soaked, genre-twisting homage to 1980s slasher films.
Spanning four decades, A Man in the Woods With an Axe begins in the summer of 1987 before pushing into the modern era, weaving together timelines and perspectives in a way that builds both dread and intrigue.
Drawing inspiration from genre standouts like Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Hatchet, and The Cabin in the Woods, the film blends visceral horror with moments of dark humor, creating a uniquely balanced experience that honors tradition while carving its own identity.
Writer-director Dillon Brown (Primal Darkness) aims to deliver everything fans crave from a slasher while boldly subverting expectations with a mid-film twist that redefines the story.
“This is an unapologetic love letter to the films that made me fall in love with horror,” Brown tells Bloody Disgusting. “But I didn’t just want to recreate that feeling; I wanted to challenge it. About halfway through, the film takes a turn that completely changes how you view not only this story, but the genre itself.”
Brown describes the vintage-inspired production as “far and away the bloodiest film I’ve ever made,” with practical effects helmed by Cody Ruch (The Mill, Pig Hill), an instructor at Tom Savini’s Special Make-Up Effects Program.
From Horror Dadz Productions, A Man in the Woods With an Axe is currently in production and targeting an early 2027 release.
