Witched

Withchcraft was not until the late medieval times. Any poor behavioral activities were blamed on witches. There were two types of magic said to be used by witches: White magic and Black magic. Witches were either burned or hung if they did not confess to being a witch. The religious leaders were deathly afraid of witches. They believed that witches worked for the devil and followed his poor acts.

Witches were punished to the extreme. Sometimes witches were put in a thing called the "thumb screw torture." They used this to make them reveal sensitive personal information. It would crush their fingers until they confessed. Witches were also, fixed to the ground with iron nails, they had to spread their arms and legs while being naked under the sun, which resulted in having very strong sunburns all around a person's body. If this wasn't enough, wild animals used to eat the victim alive. Witches were also, stoned to death. Some didn't even torture witches because they thought that it would bring bad luck to them. Witches were very common.
