25.The Tub.
Known as the punishment of sitting in the tub, the convicted person would be placed in a wooden tub with only the head sticking out. After that the executioner would paint their faces with milk and honey,and soon, flies would begin to feed on them. The victim was also fed regularly and would end up swimming in their excrement. After a few days maggots and worms would devour their body as they decayed alive.

24.The Brazen Bull.
Also known as the Sicilian bull.,A solid piece of brass was cast with a door on the side that could be opened and latched. The victim would be placed inside the bull and a fire set underneath it until the metal became literally yellow as it was heated. The victim would then be roasted to death all while screaming in agonizing pain. The bull was purposely designed to amplify their screams and make them sound like the bellowing bull.

23.impalement
Given his name, it should come as no surprise that this was the most favored method of execution by vlad the impaler. In the 15th century Romania, the victim was forced to sit on a sharp and thick pole.,when the pole was then raise upright, the victim was left to slide down the pole with their own weight. It could take the victim 3 days to die using this method and it has been said that vlad once did this to 20,000 people all while enjoying a meal.

21.Neck torture.
Humiliating and painful, this punishment was something of an endurance test where the victim would be hooked into a neck device. either made of metal or wood, which prevented the victim from adjusting into a comfortable position. The cruelty of this punishment lie within the fact that they were unable to lie down, eat or lower their heads for days.

Principally practiced in antiquity, though it remains practiced in some countries today. Its one of the most well-known execution methods due to the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ. It is a deliberately slow and painful execution where the condemned person is tied or nailed to a large wooden across and left to hang until they die which usually take days.

19.The judas cradle.
Closely related to impalement, this gruesome punishment entailed having the victim sit on sathe pyramid shaped cradle, after which they would be forced down on it by ropes With the intent of stretching the victim's on fice over a long period of time, slowly impacting them.

14.Rope Torture.
A rope is the easiest to use of all the torture device since it easy to find and can easily be fashioned to inflict a number of terrible retributions.

It could be used to hang victims at the gallows for entertainment purposes while ultimately inflicting death. It could be fashioned to restrain the victim's limbs while attaching the other end to horses who would then be made to run, consequently severing the limbs.

i don't see this as a torture device, it is rather a killing device
there is no torture involved in cutting off a persons head, once the head is gone, the person is simply dead and feels no pain
i agree with the other torture devices you have posted, but i don't agree with the Guillotine as a torture device.

11.Tongue Tearer.
Looking like an oversized pair of scissors, it could effortlessly cut the victim's tongue. Their mouth could be forced open with a device called a mouth opener, and then the iron tongue Tearer would uncomfortably twitch the tongue with its rough grippers once a firm hold was maintained, the screw screw would be firmly tightened and the victim's tongue would roughly be torn out.
