History[]

Also known as the City of Dis, it is the capital necropolis of Hell. It is ruled by the Satanic triumvirate, consisting of Lucifer Morningstar, Azazel, and Beelzebub. The Tower of Dis, also known as Lucifer's Palace, is located at the center of the city. Entrance into Dis is guarded by the Gates of Hell. Manning the gates is a one-armed, axe-wielding demon named Squatterbloat. Dream of the Endless came to the City of Dis in search of his stolen helm. It had been acquired by a demon named Choronzon, who challenged Dream to a game of wits for the rights to the helm. Dream proved victorious in the contest and walked freely from Hell, having reclaimed his property.

In the Terrifier film series, it is implied that the Ninth Circle of Hell, contained within Dis, can intersect with the real world. Beneath a town known as Realmsville is a series of dark, abandoned tunnels. These tunnels are governed by Satan and his cult of devil worshippers, who don dark brown robes and wear animal skulls as masks during rituals. They abduct young women from the normal world and drag them down into the Ninth Circle, where they are tortured and ultimately sacrificed. One of the demon cult's agents, Art the Clown, finds suitable women at the Realmsville Station, drugs them, and brings them down into this nether-region. Note: This information is not necessarily canonical per the continuity of the greater Terrifier film series.
