Dante's Inferno went into detail that was not biblical, but there's enough in the bible that writing it off completely is cherry picking.

"They will throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."

"And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.โ€

"But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.โ€

"And the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast and the false prophet were, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever."
