Stefan was dead...and in hell for all eternity, his crime? Homosexuality. The Demons in hell and even the devil himself hated punishing people for things no one could control but no matter what they were Religious crimes and everyone who committed them had to be sent to hell. To combat this the Devil himself created a hell utopia for these people who were wrongfully sent to eternal damnation and Stefan was one of them, what Stefan would never of guessed would happen was the devil himself would become fascinated and utterly head over heels with Stefan.
