The '''Halls of Agony''' is a dungeon area within Diablo III that was first seen in the [[Blizzcon 2010]] demo.  It is presumably part of [[Act I]], but the name is likely subject to change.  The area served as the starting location for players in the [[PvM]] demo.  Based on the quest information provided in the demo, it is part of [[King Leoric]]'s dungeon.  The Halls of Agony were linked to another area: the [[Highlands Passage]].
