Raise Hell

Popularized by East Coast hood rats, specifically from West Virginia, the saying "raise Hell" is usually accompanied by a raising and shaking of the Hawaiian Shaka sign

The slogan is used, and usually yelled, when a rule is broken or other such chaos is caused.

A variation of "raise Hell" exists where the "se" is removed from "raise" and the slogan becomes "rai Hell!"

"Aye, Daniel, we're about to po up on the West!"
"Fuck yeah! Raise Hell!"

Hell Raiser

A trouble-seeking, aggressive person, who can -and does- turn any social situation into an argument, and, subsequently, a fight. Used as an adjective or a noun -for stereotyping purposes- this word could apply to any potential troublemaker.

Sometimes the term is applied to people who purposefully pick on other people seeking for a violent reaction, and the term could be exchanged with the word bully.

That dude is a hell raiser, he just stepped into the bar, started picking on random dudes and suddenly there was a massive fight going on.
