"Sister Ophelia, we found a crucifix hanging upside down in your cell. You are a devil worshipper. Confess, if you don't want the torture to go on for hours."

"Since you have confessed to being a witch, you must now suffer to atone for your wicked sins. You have been condemned to death. Tomorrow you will burn at the stake."
Always good for the inquisitor to have the cover of the church!!!

"Sister Esther, confess! Did you bring Satan into our convent? Have you participated in satanic rituals with other sisters?"
i’m innocent! I keep telling you, I’m innocent. It wasn’t me! It was Sister Barbara! ARGHHHH! Didn’t you hear me? I said it was Sister Barbara!
"So, Sister Barbara, there is now a witness! The interrogatio will begin with the thumbscrews, then the leg screws, then the strappado, and then....the rack for you, my pretty! Bwahahaha!!!"
Appears that Sister Barbara has now been sent for and brought to the interrogation cellar.
^^ (Post #2493) Actually, those methods of torture were more typical of the Witch Craze, the applications of which were often used in both Catholic and Protestant jurisdictions. The Inquisition was influenced by the Malleus Maleficarum, and tortures referenced there were cruel enough for heretics. Accused witches were treated horrifically.
In central Germany and Bohemia, there were records of people (mostly women, but also men - including a prominent mayor) who were tortured numerous times by methods that even the Malleus Maleficarum did not call for. Can't remember specifics, but there was a record of an elderly woman who was tortured 62 times for a confession. Yikes!

Bamberg was particularly notorious for the torture, and execution, of suspected witches. The Hexenhaus mentioned was in Bamberg called Drudenhaus. It was used from the mid 1620s, and it was so infamous, that in the years after the demise of the Witch Craze, it was demolished by the city, I think in the middle 1630s.
There were other places like this as well.
