Creepy-Crawly Torture | comment |
Sometimes a Torture Technician isn't content with the usual types of sharp, blunt or other torture implements. Sometimes they decide to employ living creatures to cause pain or terrify the hapless victim. Insects and spiders are the most frequent creatures used, and there is a certain logic to it. Many people are afraid of creepy-crawly things, and just the feeling of the creatures crawling over the skin can be enough to terrify them. Alternately, the creatures may be the type that bite or sting, inflicting many shallow but painful wounds over a prolonged period of time without killing the victim. Many of these creatures are also venomous or poisonous, and that can cause effects of its own, provided the toxin isn't potent enough to kill or the victim isn't allergic. Occasionally, other creatures can show up as well. Deliberately keeping them hungry so they'll be inclined to attack more aggressively or, in either case, commanding them with some form of Mind Control may figure in. Compare Fed to the Beast and Snake Pit, which usually involves larger creatures and Eaten Alive, as well as Animal Assassin, where the animal is not used for torture but as a murder weapon. If it's a harmless prank rather than being used to mutilate someone, see Squirrels in My Pants. |

Spoofed on Megamind when the titular villain threatens Roxanne with various death traps, all of which she has seen before and is utterly bored of. Then she notes, "The spider's new." It's just an ordinary house spider that happened to be there, but Megamind decides to roll with it, claiming that it's poisonous. Then Roxy blows it into his face and he freaks out. | |

Raising Steam mentions a variant in the "Kitten Punishment". The victim is locked in a box with a number of kittens, and if the victim moves so as to lead any of the kittens to make sounds of distress, they are hauled out and hit over the head with a club by a large man named Cedric who is very protective of said kittens. | |

The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance: The sadistic skeksis have the Peeper Beetle when they want to torture and punish one of their own. The subject's head is locked in a cage with the purposely starved insect, which squirms around the victim's face until it finds their eye, which it then eats out. Skek-Tek the scientist suffered this fate early in the series, which is the reason one of his eyes is mechanical now. | |

MythBusters has used a Downplayed form of this to test a related myth: The idiom of "Getting Cold Feet", meaning to back out on something at the last moment, was tested in the form of Grant and Tory preparing an all-you-can eat bug buffet for Kari. The "Smell of Fear", if the cold sweats from adrenaline and fear is different from regular perspiration, was also tested for all three of the Build Team members by putting them in a glass coffin and having them covered in their most feared animals. |

The final spirit in Spirit Hunter: Death Mark is Red Riding Hood. She was used in a torture session where a live spider was lowered into her mouth. This was a sexualized reenactment of a witch trial where swallowing the spider is the only path to an innocent verdict. It's implied she swallowed it, but the ordeal left her mentally broken and she committed suicide. She returned as a jorugumo with control over normal spiders. | |

Kaamelott: One episode has Venec display a wide variety of torture implements for sale, with Leodagan enthusiastically suggesting they grab a few (despite Arthur being against torture). At the end of the episode, Arthur is showcasing one to his wife while they're Talking in Bed, a cage with a mobile poker and a stuffed rat. As he explains to his increasingly-squeamish wife, the idea is to stick the open end of the cage against an orifice, then poke the rat's ass until it flees into the orifice, after which it gnaws its way out (Arthur is against torture, but he also would appreciate a quiet night's sleep). | |

Game of Thrones: The Lannister garrison at Harrenhal use brutal torture methods to discover the whereabouts of the Brotherhood Without Banners, a rebel army operating behind their lines. Gregor Clegane selects a person each day and appends a barrel to their stomach with a rat inside before heating the barrel with a torch so that the rat will claw its way through their flesh to escape, while the Tickler dryly asks every person the same set of questions. | |

Hook: Captain Hook sentences a pirate who doubted him to "the Boo Box." The poor screaming bastard is locked into a wooden chest, as his shipmates drop scorpions in through a slide in the top while shouting "Boo!" | |

For one of Q's punishments on Impractical Jokers, he's chained down and covered with tarantulas. (He is very arachnophobic.) | |

Maria no Danzai: Kumiru's ultimate fate is to be dropped into a puddle of honey at the bottom of an empty well festering with cockroaches, centipedes and other insects, which proceed to crawl all over her and enter her orifices while her arms are bound behind her back, leaving her powerless to do anything other than to scream in horror and pain. It's a karmic death for an Asshole Victim known for honey-trapping several men and drawing amusement from watching Okaya Force Feeding Kiritaka cockroaches. | |

Criminal Minds: In the season 10 episode "The Itch", the unsub of the episode suffers from an obsessive skin disorder that causes him to hallucinate live insects crawling under his skin. The unsub takes this out on other people, kidnapping his victims and subjecting them to being covered in bugs as a punishment for not helping him with his condition. | |

In Inheritance, the fourth and final book of Inheritance Cycle, Big Bad Galbatorix uses a group of hideous carnivorous worm-like insects that he calls 'burrow grubs' as a means to try to torture a captured Nasuada into giving in and swearing her allegiance to him in the Ancient Language. | |

In the Star Wars Legends novel Darksaber, it's revealed that Palpatine would come up with a new Cruel and Unusual Death for his cheif scientist, Bevel Lemelisk, whenever a new superweapon came a cropper, using a Sith artefact to copy-paste his soul into a new clone body at the moment of death. The first of these executions was being sealed in a transparisteel box and Eaten Alive by pirhana beetles. | |

Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen: The Decepticons capture Sam to gain the information he has absorbed from a fragment of the Allspark. To do this, the Decepticon Mad Doctor Scalpel inserts two small insect-like robots into Sam's mouth who worm around in his skull. After Sam coughs them up, Scalpel extracts enough information from the robots to confirm that Sam does indeed have the information they want but they need to cut out his brain to get all of it. Fortunately for Sam, the Autobots come to his rescue before that can happen. | |

In the Artemis Fowl series, Turnball Root's preferred method of torture is force-feeding the victim a Tunnel Blue - a type of spider with two tooth-like claws on the end of its front legs. This leaves the victim with two options - co-operate with Turnball and be given a cup of coffee, which kills the spider by messing with its metabolism, or let the spider cut its way out of their belly, resulting in a very painful death. | |

The Creepypasta There's No Detention at my High School. Instead, They Send You to the Wasp Room has this as a school punishment. Not a Boarding School of Horrors, mind you, just a regular school against all logic. The protagonist is put in there to take another kid's punishment for her, then she shoves in the Sadist Teacher who put her in there when he threatens to leave her there over night. | |
