Hell-Fire is a hellish, mythological location.
In his childhood, Christopher Pike once heard a fable in which Hell-Fire featured.
During his captivity on Talos IV in 2254, now-Captain Pike was subjected to an illusion of Hell-Fire when he refused to cooperate with his Talosian jailers. (TOS: "The Cage", "The Menagerie, Part II")
No name for this location was ever provided on-screen. The name "Hell-Fire" comes from the second revised final draft script for "The Cage". In the same script draft (which involves Captain James Winter rather than Captain Pike), Hell-Fire is described in lines that read, "Winter finds himself writhing in bubbling, sulphurous [sic] brimstone, in a dark place obscured with smoke, flame licking at him from all sides."
