Torture and Dugeons in Medieval Time

            In medieval times there were things like our prisons now a days called dungeons they were usually at the bottom of the castle and they sometimes had windows and sometimes not. There even was a dungeon underneath the drawbridge which there was a random empty pit at the bottom of the pit so to use the space they used it as a prison cell and in the drain which was no longer used was sometimes someone who was a big problem to the people because they would be put there forgotten about. Some people after being executed that wasn't enough because they then had the blacksmith make a middle cage for their body to hang in outside the castle wall so that other people will be scared to follow his actions.

            In medieval ages torture was a way of discipline to criminals some were better than other and some would bring death to the person being torture. The first one was something criminals and school children where they would put your fingers in a notch that wouldn't let them out while people could walk by and laugh at you and sometimes even throw fruit at you. The second torture technique they used was pressing where a person was tied under allot of weight and every day a torturer added more weight to the press every day till the sentence was over or they die because the lungs couldn't open many prisoners under yhis punish meant would ask people to jump on the press to kill them faster.
