Blood eagle, iron maiden, rat torture (method where rats were placed in a container and heated, forcing them to gnaw through the victim's body to escape), brazen bull, lingchi.

Or anything from the spaniah inquisition

I know the blood eagle is debated and might just be a literary decice. Not sure what else is fiction here? The iron maiden?

Yes, that was probably never used and the rat thing I also only know from GOT but I never looked it up.
