1. Hung,
Drawn and Quartering was used in England until 1748. Basically it is about
being hung by the neck until nearly unconcious. Very skilled hangmen were
used to prevent the neck breaking, the victims would often try and struggle
to snap their own necks to save them from the worst. Then you were cut
down and tied to a table and your abdomen carefully opened. Your entrails
were then pulled out and detached from your stomach to your anus and held
in front of your eyes. A burning torch is then applied to your entrails.
This is the point that the victum usually passed out. After death, the
body is chopped up. Body parts are then put on spikes for public viewing.
2. Needle

parts of your boy and left there. The executioner would leave the victim
like this. If the victim tried to remove the needles, muscle and skin
tissue would begin the rip, even with the slightest movement.
3. The thumbscrews were a very popular technique that was used to get
people to talk. The victim’s thumbs were placed upon the device and tightened
like vice. The thumbs would be crushed until a confession as disertained.
It worked.

small paper type cuts all over the body, and then roll the victim in salt.

all torture. The victim is cut open, then a Gila monster, a live one,
is sewn inside the victim then the carcass of a dead buffalo is opened
up and the victim is sewn in, and left to die. Just imagine how that smells.
6. The hook is another gruesome torture in which the victim is impaled
on a hook and hung for everyone to see. The tip of the hook goes up your
ass.
7. The Spanish horse was one of the nastiest ways to die. A spike pole
is pushed into the anus of the victim then put on his feet to stand. The
victim dies of being impaled by his or her own body weight.
8. The Columbian necktie is when the victim’s throat is slit open and
the tongue of the victim is pulled through the opening.

the skull and inflicts extreme pain and leave the victim in its grasp
for hours.
12. The heretics fork was mainly used upon people suspected of heretics,
was pointed on both sides and was driven into the lower jaw and into the
sternum of the victim.
13. The iron maiden encased its victim within a rack of spikes. The iron
maiden was more a killing implement than of torture.
14. The spiked
chair, like the iron maiden, had spikes on it and when the victim sat
upon if the natural weight caused the spikes to dig into the flesh.
15. The wheel,
a very painful way of torture, used often was when the victim was laid
across firm boards upon the ground. These boards were positioned so that
the victim’s joints and limbs were not directly supported. The torturer
would smash the joints, causing pain. The victim’s crushed limbs were
braided through the spokes and covered with honey; bird and animals would
eat the
victim alive.
16. The Judas cradle had the torturer suspend a stripped person over the
top of a jagged and pointed protrusion. The torture would use rope and
pulleys to raise and lower victims. The protrusion violated the anus,
vagina, or scrotum.
17. The rack the most popular one, had the victim wrists and ankles bound
to ropes that were attached to wheels above the head and below the feet.
Wheels turned oppositely to stretch joints and muscles of the person being
tortured.
18. The turtle was the action of pressing or crushing the prisoner with
boards with weights upon them.
19. The garroting chair, like the heretics fork was a restraint of the
neck, and then a pointed rod is driven into the back of the neck until
death.

slowly descending.
23. Pears
were pear shaped metal object that were inserted in the victims mouth
and or anus. After the device was in place, a screw at the top of the
pear could be turned, causing the pear to open up. Can you say sliced,
diced and chopped up? All inside your ass.
