Manhattan, Lower East Side. Six strangers gather at the abandoned Bleecker Street Hotel, drawn together and hand-selected by the powerful goddess Mortē Mammē. Imbued with her special gifts, they’re tasked with a divine mission: break into Hell itself and rescue the innocent souls trapped in endless torment there! But Hell has its own guardians…

Can they learn to work together fast enough for their first dive into the infernal depths? And what secrets are they harboring that could tear each other apart before the demons do it for them? Pinhead himself is determined not just to stop the Harrowers, but to keep them in his fiery menagerie.
