Hades is simply another name for the realm or any realm that is linked in Judeo-Christian associated with Hell. Depending on how Judeo-Christian Hades artist render the form and description of Hades varies. However this is a shorten version of what I just posted. The term hades in Christian theology (and in New Testament Greek) is parallel to Hebrew sheol (שאול, grave or dirt-pit), and refers to the abode of the dead. The Christian concept of hell is more akin to and communicated by the Greek concept of Tartarus, a deep, gloomy part of hades used as a dungeon of torment and suffering. But the ruler of the underworld is Hades but even has other names. Hades was also called "Plouton" (Greek: Πλούτων, gen.: Πλούτωνος, meaning "Rich One"), a name which the Romans Latinized as Pluto.
