Just went to The London Dungeons and it was amazing. It made my fiance a little bit queasy though ๐ญ
We first went on a ride that dropped us into the trial dungeons (the place where people who are just about to be executed eat their last meal and say their last prayers), it was rather dark so it was kinda creepy ๐คช
Then we met the dungeon keeper! He had an axe so we didn't ask too many questions ๐ฅฒ
Then the ride finished (after a fair few jump scares) and we went to the torture museum part of the dungeons.
AND BOY WAS IT HORRIFYING
(I was a bit sick in my mouth ๐ฃ)
This device was put into the mouth of the victim and screwed open so their teeth broke, tongue is ripped out and their jaw completely shatters ๐จ It can also be put into the... Well y'know. The area.
Looking like a large pair of scissors, the tongue tearer is designed to cause a lot of pain in seconds. This device is fairly self-explanatory from its name; it was used to remove the tongue from the traitor with little effort. The iron tongue tearer was placed in hot flames to heat up before being clamped down onto the tongue, which was then twisted three times then yanked out! Ouch...
Ah, yes! One of my favorites actually (a little less gruesome). Thumbs, as well as fingers and toes, are placed into the device, with screws being tightened crushing and breaking the bones. For the extra devious criminals the screws would have spikes on them for extra pain. Oof
A metallic hook placed into the base of the neck. Traitors would then be hoisted off the ground with the hook sinking deeper into the flesh, causing incredible pain. Just like the Pear Of Anguish this device can also be used in other places. I'll let you figure that one out.
I'll give you a clue. This device can only be used on males! Enough said. (I think you'll need the smaller one though) ๐คช
Is this list making you a hit queasy? How about a lie down, but maybe not on the rack! If you do, you'll be tied down and stretched until your joints dislocate, and if they keep turning the rack then your limbs might fall off! Still wish you were a bit taller?
The knee splitter comprised of about 20 spikes across two wooden blocks facing each other, connected via two large screws. The spikes were places into the traitors flesh, and once embedded into the leg, the screws were tightened, drawing the two wooden blocks (and the spikes) closer together, slowly crushing the knee. Lovely!
And that was my gore filled day in London!
