  4. Contrapasso: Souls that have committed treachery against guests are forced to lie on their backs in the frozen lake, with only their faces poking out of the ice. * Symbolizes that they’re alone in life and don’t have the warmth of friends and family. Souls that have committed treason have not died on earth yet and devils occupy their bodies above the ground. * Considered evil, therefore their bodies are replaced with something way more evil than themselves, the devils.
