<|assistant|>
One of the most gruesome forms of medieval torture was therack. This device was made of two straight wooden beams with a wheel at the top, enabling the victim's arms to be tied and then secured to the beam. This often caused slow and painful dislocation of the shoulders, followed by broken bones and other damage. Another popular medieval torture device was the water cure, which involved immersing a victim in a barrel of water that was gradually drained, causing them to slowly asphyxiate. Iron Maidens, also known as Tornatories, were another type of torture implement, involving a torture device that resembled a spiked wheel, which was used to cause extreme pain and often severe injuries.
