Sheol does, but Hades is a person(god) not anything else.
Fail.
I haven't finished reading much further than this, but I just had to point this glaring mistake out. Hades is in fact both the name of the Ancient Greek God of the Underworld, and simultaneously also the word used for said underworld, even amongst the extant writings from the time when these myths were believed in.
