The Gruesome Truth About Gibbeting: Explored

Gibbeting was a particularly gruesome form of punishment that aimed to serve as a deterrent to others. The bodies of the executed were often left hanging in the gibbet for weeks or months as a warning to the public.

Over time, the use of gibbets declined, and they were eventually replaced by more humane methods of execution. Today, gibbets are primarily used as historical landmarks or tourist attractions, reminding us of a dark chapter in our history.
