Is there any statement in the Bible saying that human's have souls that survive their mortal bodies?
Bonus question: What passages say there is a hell where the dead are currently suffering?

Well, it is certainly implied many hundreds of times.
It is nonsense, of course.
Just as there is not a scrap of proof that any gods exist, there has never been any evidence of any kind at
any time that there is such a thing as a human soul or spirit.
What is *factual* - rather than just a belief based upon blind faith - is that at our deaths we move
immediately to oblivion...nothingness.
Death takes you to your final sleep, from which you never awaken.
This scares the hell out of most people, and they make themselves feel better by saying
that there is a heaven waiting for their "immortal soul".
You just have to decide whether or not you have enough courage to face the truth.
If not, believe in heaven. You'll be fooling yourself, but you'll feel more comfortable.

But your spirit came from God,
and when you die, it will return to him.

10 They will drink the wine of God’s anger. This wine is prepared with all its strength in the cup of God’s anger. They will be tortured with burning sulfur before the holy angels and the Lamb. 11 And the smoke from their burning pain will rise forever and ever. There will be no rest, day or night, for those who worship the beast and its idol or who wear the mark of its name.”
