Hellivator

A Hellevator is a tool used to descend a player straight down into hell, for easy access to retrieve Hellstone or to fight enemies.

Early hellevators may be created using platforms within jumping distance of one another to allow the player to jump up or descend down before gaining access to the grappling hook, and is an effective way of quick transportation. Once obtaining a Grappling Hook or Ivy Whip, however, it is more efficient to destroy the platforms for quicker descending and ascending (with practice).

A further efficient way of using hellevators is with the use of the Magic Mirror. Using this tool in conjunction with a House or Mansion will allow the player to descend into hell, and then teleport back up to their spawn. This is a fast and easy method to move back and forth between areas with ease.
