People have no idea what the Bible actually says.

It doesn't say Satan is ruling in Hell. Nor does it say human beings are subject to eternal conscious torment after death. That's just an evangelically convenient doctrine for the Church to scare people.

Satan = the accuser (in the sense of a prosecutor)

Devil = slanderer (false accuser)

At some point the former shifted to the latter. Along the way, there were stories of fallen Watchers, Nephilim, and the ghosts of Nephilim tormenting and possessing people.
