In this harrowing episode we delve into the brutal world of historical torture methods, examining some of the most infamous and excruciating forms of punishment ever devised. From the chilling precision of Lingchi, or "Death by a Thousand Cuts," to the bone-stretching torment of the Rack, we uncover the dark history behind these cruel instruments of suffering. We also explore the grim reality of the Pear of Anguish, a device designed to inflict unspeakable pain, and the horrific fate of those sentenced to be Hanged, Drawn, and Quartered—a punishment reserved for the most heinous crimes.


Join us as we take a deep dive into the macabre and fascinating history of human cruelty, examining the psychological and physical impacts of these gruesome practices, and their lasting legacy in the annals of forensic history.
