This month, we're tracing the origins of medieval torture, separating myth from documented history, and examining how Vlad the Impaler earned his infamous reputation... one sharpened stake at a time.We’re stepping back into a world where power was enforced through fear, justice was measured in pain, and punishment was designed not just to kill, but to be remembered. Medieval Europe was an age of castles and crusades, faith and fealty… and some of the most brutal torture tactics ever devised by human hands.From iron devices meant to terrify as much as they destroyed, to methods engineered for slow, public suffering, torture was both a tool of control and a warning to anyone who dared to disobey. And no figure embodies that legacy more than Vlad III of Wallachia, known to history as Vlad the Impaler. Want to hear other Patreon-exclusive episodes? Join us on Patreon!
