Saw Torture (Torture)
The Saw was widely used throughout the Middle Ages, mainly because the tools required were found in most houses and no complex devices were required!. It was a cheap way to torture and kill a victim who was often accused of: witchery, adultery, murder, blasphemy or even theft!.

The victim was tied to an inverted position!. This had several "benefits": first, it assured sufficient blood diverted to the brain, second, it slowed down the loss of blood and third, it humiliated the victim!.

The Rat Torture (Torture)
A cheap and effective way to torture someone was with the use of rats!. There were many variants, but the most common was to force a rat through a victim's body (usually the intestines) as a way to escape!. This was done as follows:

The victim was completely restrained and tied to the ground or any horizontal surface!. A rat was then placed on his stomach covered by a metallic container!. As the container was gradually heated, the rat began to look for a way out - through the victim's body!.

Digging a hole usually took a few hours of agonizing pain for the victim!. This almost invariantly resulted in death!.

The Pear of Anguish (Torture)
The Pear of Anguish was used during the Middle Ages as a way to torture women who conducted a
miscarriage, liars, blasphemers and homosexuals!.

A pear-shaped instrument was inserted into one of the victim's orifices: the vagina for women, the anus for homosexuals and the mouth for liars and blasphemers!.

The instrument consisted of four leaves that slowly separated from each other as the torturer turned the screw at the top!. It was the torturer's decision to simply tear the skin or expand the "pear" to its maximum and mutilate the victim!.
This torture very rarely provoked death, but was often followed by other torture methods!.

The Breast Ripper (Torture)
Used as a way to punish women, the breast ripper was a painful and cruel way to mutilate a woman's breasts!.

This instrument was mostly reserved for women accused of conducting a miscarriage or those accused of adultery!.

The claws were used either hot or cold on the victim's exposed breasts!. If the victim wasn't killed she would be scarred for life as her breasts were literally torn apart!.

A common variant of the breast ripper is often referred to as "The Spider" which is a similar instrument attached to a wall!. The victim's breasts were fixed to the claws and the woman was pulled by the turturer away from the wall; successfully removing them!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
