Had One Hell Of A Scare.

I was told:

We sure had one hell of a scare.


Depending on context, Can I say this:

We sure had two hells of two scares.

We sure had lots of hells of lots of scares.

  

Top answer

We sure had lots of ***** of lots of scares. No, you can't. a/one **** of a + noun is a fixed expression in English and you should use it as such.
