Am I the only one who is paranoid that everything you delete goes into some kind of deletion abyss... and are just waiting for the day to take revenge?

Actualy nothing happens to that data. Its still there, only the information where it is and what it contains is erased. The space is free for further use, if you want to overwrite it, but it wont be exactly deleted before that happens.

To expand on Jacksterson's and FabianN's idea. When you erase something, it isn't actually erased, it makes that specific item terminated and hidden and allows your computer to write over it. Your computers hard drive is grouping of 1's and 0's. If you were to run out of hard drive space, and you erased something, when you download another item, it writes over the 0's and 1's of the file with the 0's and 1's of the new file your downloading. In essence it creates fake space which can be written over. It's like pressing the insert key over your hard drive.
