    The Inquisition used various torture methods to extract confessions. These included:

    Strappado: In this method, the victim's hands were tied behind their back and they were suspended by their arms, causing extreme pain in the shoulders.

    Hydrotherapy: The victim was forced to drink large amounts of water, causing a drowning sensation.

    The rack: In this method, the victim was placed on a bench and their limbs were slowly pulled apart until the joints were dislocated.
