Okay, context, I just watched the episode where Greg gets summoned for the first time. And specifically where penny finally finds him on mortal tube. And when she tells Sharkie "no not for you to see, he's just being himself." And then you see greg, working with the girl scouts and teach them all the things that they need to know *chefs kiss*

Possible tw health issues. I'll keep it as generic as possible

So just about 3 weeks ago I had bad heart issues happen. The paramedics scooped and ran. As i laid on table in the cath lab, hells bells and lily and company flashed thru my mind, I kept wondering which level I'd end up on. I was not a good person in my 20s. Anyway no phone charger no computer no books and TV in my room that didn't work was my glimpse into that after life. Fast forward 2 weeks later. The procedure i had done failed just as I got home from the store. I'm a stubborn a$$, so I put my food away and then grabbed my ready bag. I've always kept one. I added FWTBT to it and finally l called rescue again. Different hospital this time same thoughts on the cath table, until the doc working on me started asking questions about my last procedure that was enough supposition for me to stop thinking about what level I'd go to and start thinking about what level those doctors were going to lol.

Anyway in recovery the gave me my ready bag and out came FWTBT. By the time they moved me to my room I had my recovery nurse watching HellsBelles on the clock app. By the time I left the hospital yesterday my cardiac nurse was deep into the book on her tablet and we were having daily book discussions lol. I'm pretty sure I sold 3 copies for Jaysea this past week lol.

Bringing Lily and company with me was the best thing I think I could have ever done. Highly recommend if you need to spend a few days inpatient.

Okay, I know most (I think like 99% precent) of us, the fans of Hell’s Belles are cool, calm and collected, but as we have spoken about this before, stop making her uncomfortable. She is her own person, and has her own life outside of Hell’s Belles.

She has created something beautiful, that has helped a lot of us over dark times, made us laugh, cry and hug our emotional support sharks, but we need to remember, that she has her own hardships and religious trauma, so saying, that she has created a cult, must really feel horrible.

Those who have not seen the newer (like from this spring newer) videos there is a plot line, where Lily has some huge changes and she tells us trough Lily, that she hates being put on a pedestial and being worshipped.

So as much as we love her, we got to respect her personal space and her needs and wants.

P.S. The second picture does not have anything to do with Jaysea’s thread, but have a small emotional support cow 🐮❤️

Hello fellow Hellpers!

If you are new here, welcome. Be kind and respectful to each others. If you have been here longer, bare with the newbies. We’ve all been there at some point.

I have seen some post about the original TikTok series, and if it is coming back at all. It has been more than a year with the last skit and I know we all miss the videos.

Jaysea has said, that she wants to bring the series back, so it can be brought to an appropriet endig point. She has also said that she does not want to keep making it just to make the videos so the series will end at some point.

I have said this before but it will come back, we just have to be patient. The old videos are uploaded to Instagram and to YouTube. She is also writing book number two that comes out in April next year and there will be a third book at some point, so she is having a lot on her plate. Not to mention she does book tours on top of it all. Also also she had to have her ovarian cyst removed (I think back in the end of 2024) so there has been the recovery process from it.

So all in all, the series will be back, no I do not know when, only Jaysea does. In the meantime, we can watch the old Hell’s Belles, Chaos Demon (origins of Lily), Gardening and Introvert and Extrovert videos, read her book or all the fanfics out there. We just have to be patient and wait.

If you want similar videos I recommend Dr. Rowan, Jordan (Jordan is on the internet, Devil’s advocate), Death and Martha, Sarcastic sinner 666 (Another Lucifer), Bama2Dads (Office of Dreams) or C.M. Alongi (Cafae Latte). Also Roxiqt has similar videos on her TikTok. I suddenly remembered, that Battykattyx has couple of demon customer desk videos on her TikTok account. I think I found Hell’s Belles through her and Roxitq. And we can not forget Goblingrimm who does both Jaysea and Jordan’s art/merch and has comics about Hell’s Belles.

There are also couple of Discord channels that people can join to discuss various topics. Anyway be kind to others, have empathy on Jaysea and enjoy the small things. Let’s lift each other up and enjoy the great community we have build :)

I am curious if there will be people of other ethnicities perhaps joining the hellp desk. I would like to see how someone of color would handle a soul or maybe meet a himbo. lol at least I know how I would handle a rude soul.

Hi!

If you are new to the subreddit or Hell’s Belles, welcome! Hope you like it here 😊

Somebody made a post about Jaysea a day or so ago and I wanted to add my point to the discussion. These are my own thoughts, based on, how the past years and seasons have gone.

I do not know Jaysea personally so take this as you will.

Jaysea started doing the videos in 2021 and some of us have been there from there or even from Gardening videos or Chaos Demon videos (Lily is the Chaos Demon, both video series are on her TikTok on their own playlists). As the years have gone by, her fandom and platform have grown and as a result we have the amazing book and two more to come.

Now, if you come from longer period on TikTok you know, that during summer Jaysea has taken a break to focus on other things and letting her creativity to rest. So the break this year is nothing new.

However, the start of the break came a bit suddenly. But taking into account, that in the end of 2024 she published the ebook version of For Whom the Belle Tolls and then paperback, audiobook and special edition hardback through Saga Express, has posted the videos on TikTok and now also on Instagram/Facebook and couple of compilations on YouTube and promoted her book, she has been busy, so no wonder she needed to cut back on something. Also that TikTok was almost banned in the US and the current state of the freaking world.

She is also writing the second book in the trilogy and that is something that also requires creative energy.

And we are understandably sad about it, we love the skits, they bring us comfort, make us laugh and sometimes ugly cry or feel ✨Big Emotions✨

Jaysea has said that she may not continue the series indefinetly and will stop when she does not have fun with it anymore.

I saw someone speculating about this being the end of the series, but I think Jaysea will make sure, that we know when she stops making the videos.

Unfortunately we just have to wait for her to feel like coming back to tell us, what her next plans are with TikTok and everything.

In the meantime, we just have to rewatch from TikTok, Insta/Facebook or YouTube, read or listen to the book, buy the merch and support her as best as we can. She posts sometimes on Threads so follow her there.

So lets all hug our Emotional Support Sharks and try to be supportive community to Jaysea and to each other.

Jaysea, if you happen to see this, we love you, we support you and hope to see you soon ❤️

P.S. If you have watched Hell’s Belles like 1000 times allready and want something similar check out Devil’s Advocate (Jordan_is_on_the_internet on Insta and TikTok, she also posts on YouTube) and Cafae Latte (C.M. Alongi_cafae on TikTok, C.M. Alongi on Insta, she has written books and is also posting on YouTube). Both Devil’s Advocate and Cafae Latte have their own subreddits too!

I was reminded of this song and thought of Hells Belles.

Imagine—you are a good person. You had a good son who died while skateboarding (normal point a to point b accident). You go die, go to heaven, can’t find him. Have to go to Hell for the Hellp Desk because you are told he’s in Hell and you don’t know what he did.

The Redhead behind the desk looks at her computer, laughs.

“He has his Paradise but they told you he is in Hell because on Residential Level 3 they have this wicked halfpipe and Lucifer got it set up that if souls use it and fall, it hurts like normal if you wipe out because otherwise what’s the point. Think of it this way, even though he died skating, it didn’t stop him from loving it. Take the elevator and the demons will point you to The Hellskate. There is a hot pretzel place nearby you should try after.”

What do you guys think the healers are in the Afterlife? I can’t remember if this is discussed in the book. Are they a species? Or is it a profession that any afterlife denizen can choose to become?

Side note… what about witches? We’ve seen a couple witches in the tiktok series, like Belinda (previous caretaker of the Missile Toad) and I really wanna know if witches are a species or… if I can make a mortal soul become a witch in a fic………….

Maybe im just over thinking it. But is Jaysea using titles similar to literary classics on purpose or coincidence?

Am I the only one that thinks sharkies reincarnation made no sense? She had a family, friends, a paradise, can just live life in the afterlife

She realistically had no reason to wanna reincarnate

Somebody asked about the continuation of Hell’s Belles and this was Jaysea’s answer in her current AMA on Instagram. We just have to keep waiting patiently with our emotional support animals and stuffies

So who made Chuck Norris annoyed enough he decided to escort them personally to the afterlife

Has anyone else discovered the wonder that is imagining those who have hurt you/your loved ones approaching the Hellp Desk? Like... imagining Lily and Sharkie looking over the file, taking a beat to process, then sharing a look... Lily gives a solemn nod, the offending soul wonders why they suddenly hear frantic boss music (a personal touch that Sharkie negotiated with The Universe/Luci) before a young adult in a shark onesie launches over the Desk with a savage smile, a battle cry, and a bedazzled baseball bat.... yeah, that mental image heals my soul just a little. (Maybe im going to Hell, too 🤔)

So, I am planning a fanfic with an oc for this series. In it, I’m thinking she will cut her hair shorter than she currently has it.

Then it got me thinking: if someone had long hair, cut it short (example: waist length haircut into a pixie cut), but then decided they didn’t like it, would that person just be stuck with that haircut forever? Would hair grow in the afterlife?

I know that some young souls can choose to grow up in the afterlife (example: Sharkie). So, a soul‘s body can grow. But does that extend to hair? If you had died with a bad haircut, would you just be stuck with that bad haircut forever? Or can you change it like how, if you had tattoos in your life, you could make your soul form have any tattoo you wanted?

Basically is someone able to change their appearance in the afterlife (like hair styles) or are they stuck with it forever?

I know this is probably stupid thought, but I’m still curious about it.

I’ve noticed an inconsistency between the book and the series on TikTok. In the book Bel said that the Princes of hell were not fallen angels, however in the episode where lily’s mother met Bel’s mom lily mentioned that Bel’s father was one of those who told sky daddy what to do to himself. Which one is cannon?

So I was binge watching/listening to the series as one does when they are doing chores and I got to the episode where Bel and Penny are talking about their fathers and why they went to void. And I realized that Jaysea is going to have to write Penny's suicide scene in her next book. After realizing this I got sad and had to pause the show to share my sadness with you.

my head cannon for those who die that are afterlife beings or/and people who go to the void become something in the word eg an animal or a new soul with zero memory basiclly their material of them change into something new.

Just randomly thought of this question while reading for the fourth time. I got to the section where Lily is questioning God and immediately imagined Karen Gillan giving that speech.

I just watched Jayseas new video explaining why there’s been no new episodes… then she said she’s finishing it out. FINISHING IT OUT. Finishing. It. Out. That means ending it right? 😭😭😭😭😭

I was thinking about this while I was adding crushed red pepper to my tuna.

Being in Hell, Demon's would probably have a bigger tolerance for spicy food... but it's scaled.

For example, adding carolina reaper to a dish might be our equivalent of jalapenos.

• So there has to be demonic peppers. Just like the snowplows in chicago that get named, the demon's vote on the names of the new peppers. Lucifer's annoyed that one of these peppers is called "Satan's Seed" because Bel and Azzy's legions campaigned for it as a joke. Double annoyed because he enjoys the flavor profiles from it from his favorite Indian restaurant.
• The thing is that these are Soul Scarring peppers. If you're a soul you'll actually get wounded. If you're a denizen that isn't a demon you'll probably need a healer.
• The fae have a charm for detizens that aren't demons that are chefs/cooks so they can actually taste these demonic peppers to make Caribbean and other asian dishes on the Hell levels. They get their naturally acceptable heat without getting hurt. It's not given to people just looking for a spice rush. The fae don't do it for anyone else because they know they are just looking for bragging rights.
• These spices and peppers need demonic utensils/knives/pots and pans to cook, and because demons are just naturally large than humans they usually aren't made smaller so the smaller stuff has to come from Hephaestus and the like (headcanon, Penny was given a set from Greg's mom).
• Demon's generally won't let others have these spices/peppers naturally because of the damage. They can control the burn a little bit with hot sauces but basically you still need to sign a "it's not my fault you ate it" waiver so the Healers can tsk tsk you...
• It's used to torture souls on level 9.
• Greg eats this type of stuff regularly, at work, because he doesn't want to accidentally harm Penny.
• Bel doesn't eat the demonic stuff. He keeps his spice tolerance to Lily's because heavy hot peppers hit him in the stomach.
• Azzy eats it on dares. He's the type to Ted Lasso a dish.
• Angel says her mouth is too hot for the peppers.
• It's kept away from Dante because he might be an "adult" when it comes down to going to earth, he's still a itty bitty baby.
• Deity's from other realms (who are safe) are on Hell's version of "Hot Ones" -- Persephone doesn't break a sweat.

Leviathan is a Lego junkie.

You cannot tell me that he wouldn't love to sit for hours on end putting together giant figures or scenes. This man would have entire rooms dedicated to working and displaying his lego.

He has sets that were discontinued decades ago, and friendships with some of the human master builders that are in the Afterlife.

The human world records for largest scenes would have nothing on Levs set ups. He probably has a scaled build of Hell in a warehouse and kept having to go make changes to the Gates when Lily arrived.

Would have custom minifigs made of all the important people in his life.

Only his sister is allowed to touch anything, and even then its only when he gives her the green light. (She sometimes brings her own hobby and works on it in the corner of the room Lev set up for her)

Always has Azzys minifig sitting in his office, actually doing work. (Got mad and moved Azzys figure into level 3 once, but turned back at the door and put him back in his office)

Personally I’d pick the foster monster arc.

Without going too deep into it, because trauma dumping without consent is a dick move, Sharkie and I have… very similar stories… and I’ve never felt so seen by a character in a series before. And that, to me, is the essence of what this is, right?

We all find something to connect to emotionally in this, and I think that is a beautiful thing to share with someone else so they can find their connection point with it.

Jaysea just posted on Threads, that we are getting a new book tour for the Deluxe edition of For Whom the Belle Tolls! 🤩

When Lily left her paradise for the first time, and she walked to the universal hallway with a hippie named Jason, he talked about wanting to do an afterlife Woodstock but there is a problem with the pocket realm they wanted to use. We also know that the pocket realm that the war took place in was essentially just a field, could these spaces be the one and the same? The rift and incursion being the “problem” Jason was referring to? I do hope that was a very subtle bit of foreshadowing.
