The Judas Chair was a torture device used in the Spanish Inquisition.

The Judas Chair, also known as the Judas Cradle, was a pyramid-shaped seat. The victim was placed on top of it, with the point inserted into their anus or vagina, then very slowly lowered by ropes. The intended effect was to stretch the orifice over a long period of time.
