A YouTuber named Elijah Daniel, 25, has bought the small Michigan town of Hell – and renamed it Gay Hell.
Gay Hell, Mi has everything. A library, a place to lock your love in Gay Hell, and even a WEDDING CHAPEL TO GET GAY MARRIED IN HELL!” he said.
When asked about the name of the town, which reportedly has just dozens of residents, Mr Daniels told Sky News it “literally was perfect”.
Mr Daniel, who has nearly 600,000 YouTube subscribers, is openly gay and got engaged to his partner, Sam, in January.
He said he bought it as an act of rebellion against the Trump administration rejecting requests from US embassies to fly the rainbow flag during Pride Month.

ahead of pride month Trump’s administration put a ban on embassy’s flying pride flags.

so as of today, I am now the owner of Hell, Michigan. I bought the whole town.

And my first act as owner, I have renamed my town to Gay Hell, MI.

The only flags allowed to fly are pride. pic.twitter.com/AKOcZm2Jvm
