[edit] Behind the scenes

• "The Ninth Circle", is a reference to Dante Alighieri's The Divine Comedy. The first canticle is Inferno (Hell), which contains nine circles. The Ninth Circle is the circle of treachery. The fact that a character named Charon appears in Dante's Inferno to ferry Dante and Virgil across the Acheron river further suggests this connection.

• It might also be a reference to Clive Barkers "Mister B. Gone" novel. It is the underworld childhood home of the book's daemon narrator Jakabok Botch. Jakabok fell into a fire as a child and was horribly burned and mutilated which when describing how he now looks is very similar to ghouls.

• "The Ninth Circle" is also the name of a Yugoslavian film from 1960.

• The Ninth Circle appears in Elder Scrolls 3:Morrowind, which is also made by Besthesda Softworks.
• The Ninth Circle also appears in Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines
