I finished reading the story, and I have to admit it is quite disturbing.
My argument against the possibility of such hells is the same as my
argument against the possibility of christian hell: if I can exist in
some conventional state C, that lasts some finite time t, and in some
hellish state H, that lasts for eternity, then the probability of
finding myself in a moment of C is zero. (p_C = t / +inf).
Of course that depends on "self" being defined by memories. Otherwise
"you" may be experiencing H but only remembering the most recent segment.
