The Wheel Torture Room in the Choir.
The Torture Chambers are a collection of rooms throughout the castle. They are, as the name implies, used for torturing the castle's inmates. This term mostly refers to the six rooms in the Choir and Transept which are used explicitly for torture, however there are other rooms in the castle which serve a similar purpose, such as the room in the Morgue where a man died of dehydration.
Information
The torture chambers share a particular sound effect that resembles a warped church bell. Several other rooms, such as the crematorium in the Morgue, also possess this sound effect. This is likely because the dead bodies in the morgue were torture victims.
The six main torture chambers in the Choir and Transept each possess a unique device. The Iron maiden, Wheel, and Brazen bull are found in the Choir, while the Strappado , Saw , and Judas Cradle are found in the Transept. Touching any one of the devices will trigger a brief flashback of Daniel inflicting torture on a supposed criminal. The Nave itself also possesses a torture device, in a fashion: all the torture rooms have pipes that shuffle the noises of the victims to the people in the Nave's holding cells.
All of the torture rooms in the Choir and Transept have Orb pieces in them, and some have ingredients for Agrippa's Potion.
Trivia
- Staying in a torture chamber for too long will drain sanity.
- The torture devices founded in the chambers were used in the Medieval era inquisition against criminals who have commited a heavy crime like high treason, blasphemy, witchery, heresy, or murder.
- In Transept, there is an occult symbol in front of each torture chamber entrance; their meanings are unknown.
- In the room with Strappado, when turning the wheel that runs the device, a woman can be heard heavily breathing in agony and after doing so, the cracking of woman's bones can be heard, Daniel will lose some sanity and the chair the victim would sit on will be flipped over by itself.
