these methods honestly make my skin crawl!
Here are ten medieval tortures and/or executions. Hope you learn some interesting history reading this book.
As opposed to prevalent thinking, torturers were not giving figure a shot if their casualties weighed as much as a duck. At the point when it came to witch dunking, there were a few techniques utilized. There was the more broad dunking seat which included step by step longer inundations in the water until you either admitted or suffocated. At that point there was the technique for having your hands and feet bound and essentially threw in the water. The thought here was that on the off chance that you were a witch, Satan would guarantee that you would skim on top of the water and endure. When it was clear you were a witch you would then be taken out from the water and appropriately hung. In the event that you were not a witch, you would sink to the base and suffocate like a decent Christian.
Here's a picture of the dunking device that was used and can now be found in some medieval museums:

Fun fact:there were many more ways that a so called "witch" could and would be trialed.
