Judgement of Sinners
Are you a sinner? If you are, you may be reluctant to enter the Judgement of Sinners exhibit at The Edinburgh Dungeon! However minor the crime committed, in the eighteenth century there was a dubiously fitting punishment in store that would terrify the living daylights out of you today! And at the Edinburgh Dungeon the past is today! and the judge is convicting you of horrible crimes!
Will you be condemned to languish in the rat-infested dungeon, suffer the consequences of your actions in the torture chamber or will you be operating the torture equipment on some other poor victim? The maniacal judge of sin is about to point the finger!
People suffered hideous torture through many inventive methods and contraptions. See which were considered appropriate consequence for different crimes and gasp at the savagery that once reigned in Europe. Just don't annoy the Dungeon staff!
