Demonic imagery has been associated with Hell for a long time. Here is the third triptych from Bosch's "The Garden of Earthly Delights":

This is over 500 years old. Priests have been trying to keep their sheep in line with big, bad wolf stories for a long, long time. For all of us born in the 20th century we have all seen scary demon movies too.
