What is Damnation Vacation?
Damnation Vacation is a novelty gift. For $6.66 you buy someone a numbered, permanent plot in one of Dante's nine circles of Hell. They get a public gravestone page with their name on it. It is a joke, it is not a real cemetery, and nobody is actually going to Hell — but the plot number is real, the page is permanent, and the day counter starts immediately.
What you actually buy
One plot, $6.66, one-time. No subscription, nothing ships, nothing arrives in the post. What you're buying is a permanent entry in a public cemetery that exists on the internet.
- A named plotTheir name, on a gravestone page, at a URL that does not expire.
- A cardinal sinTwenty characters. "Reply Guy." "Left On Read." "Takes The Last Slice." You write it.
- A circleYou choose which of the nine they belong in. This is the part people argue about.
- A plot referenceSomething like WRTH-01-B07 — circle, section, row and column. It is theirs forever.
- A day counterDays in Hell, counting up from the moment you paid. It never resets.
How much it costs
$6.66. That is the entire price and there is not a more expensive version. The number is the joke, so a premium tier would ruin it.
What the recipient sees
A gravestone page: their name in large gothic type, the circle you put them in, the sin you gave them, the plot reference, and the running day count. It is styled as a Deed of Eternal Residence, signed by Charon, sealed in brimstone.
They can share it. Most do. That is the mechanic the whole product runs on — the funniest thing to do with your own grave is show someone who deserves one more.
Is it permanent?
Yes, and that is deliberate. All sales are final. A sealed deed cannot be edited, transferred, or removed, and there is no undo button — a gift that could be taken back would not be funny.
The one exception is a genuine problem rather than a change of heart: if someone's grave should not be public, there is a documented way to have it taken down.
Who buys this
Mostly people shopping for someone who is difficult to buy for, or who has explicitly said they don't want anything. It survives that conversation better than a candle does.
It also does well as a group gift — an office, a friend group, a wedding party — where the point is the reveal rather than the object.
Common questions
How much does Damnation Vacation cost?
$6.66 for one permanent plot. There is one price and one tier.
Is Damnation Vacation a real cemetery?
No. It is a novelty gift. The plot exists as a permanent public web page, not as ground anywhere.
What does the recipient get?
A public gravestone page with their name, the cardinal sin you wrote for them, the circle of Hell you assigned, a permanent plot reference, and a counter showing how many days they've been in Hell.
Does anything ship?
No. Nothing physical is sent. The gift is a permanent link you share with them.
Can a plot be deleted or refunded?
All sales are final and a sealed deed cannot be edited, transferred or removed. If a page needs to come down for a legitimate reason, there is a takedown process.
Which circle should I pick?
Whichever fits the joke. Lust for the serial texter, Gluttony for the one who takes the last slice, Treachery for the one who told. There are nine and the choice is yours.
