We explore the realms of the Greek Underworld and what actually happens to a soul after death in ancient Greek belief.

We break down the role of Hades and Persephone as rulers of the dead, the function of the Three Judges, and how souls are sorted into each realm.

We also talk about who truly ends up in Tartarus and why it was not a place for the average person, but a punishment reserved for those that trick and disrespect the gods.
