It is my own personal view that Mary Sues/Marty Stus do not have souls if only because chasing them down in the afterlife to kill them again is needlessly tasteless (a view which others have reflected in previous comments.) Plus - from a purely structural viewpoint - the assassination of the Sue should be the climax of the mission. Doing it twice only hinders the overall story.

It should be taken into account that some Sues or Stus might be created as ghosts or spirits. *glares at the Danny Phantom continuum* Even in such a situation, one wouldn't need to go into the Underworld to hunt down the Sue. Just grab an unlicensed nuclear accelerator and remember not to cross the streams.
