Hellfire is a Doom II megawad by Shadowman, initially released on January 30, 2006. The first entry in Shadowman's long-running Hellfire series, it is split among two sets of maps: city levels from MAP01 to MAP07, and Hell levels from MAP21 to MAP28. Notably, some of the Hell levels are recreations of levels found in Heretic. It was uploaded to the /idgames archive on May 10, 2007.

Hellfire received several sequels. Hellfire 2 was released in 2009, containing remakes of some of the maps. 2011 saw the release of Hellfire: Reborn, a retelling of the story of the original Hellfire with all the levels remade from scratch. Finally, Hellfire III was released in 2019.
