rejected.content: The most common medieval torture techniques include drawing and quartering, the rack, the scavenger's daughter, the wheel, iron maidens, and the strappado. Drawn and quartering involved stretching a convict's limbs in different directions and then slicing them off. The rack was a wooden framework equipped with pulleys and levers used to stretch and tear the victim's body. the scavenger's daughter involved tying the person with weights and sinking them in the mud. The wheel involved tying the victim and leaving them to slowly die from exposure. Iron Maidens involve pinning the victim to a wooden framework with spikes. Lastly, the strappado is a form of torture where the victim is hoisted by the thumbs and made to hang by their wrists.  Thanks to @Anonymous for the question.
