Enter the Holodeck through the old wooden door and find yourself in the Lower Dungeons where the interrogations take place. Pass through to the rear of the Underground Chambers where the heretics are to be questioned and head up the wide stone staircase to the Upper Court where the trials are in session.
The Underground Chambers contain several areas useful for interrogation. There's several suspension points on the wooden beams and gibbets where your "guests" can hang around. Just touch them to get them to work. Also, if you touch the barrels behind the Inquisitor's chair you'll be offered some free wrist ropes to wear while you're strung up. Just wear them.
The Inquisitor's Desk.
You'll see the Inquisitor's Desk, with posed chair and papers to sign. You can touch the candle to light or extinguish the flame. You can sit on the chair too, and look menacing.
The Iron Cage and the X-Frame:
Touch the inside of the Iron Cage to lie inside it. You can also sit on the X-Frame to trigger the animation in that, too.
The Pit and the Pendulum:
This classic device can be operated by touching the blade to start it swinging (or to stop it). There's a few spread-eagle poses and animations in the base. Use the built-in "Wait" pose to mount and dismount it.
The Bone Crusher and The Axe Block:
Try out the poses in the Bone Crusher by sitting on it. You'll find several different types of poses, some against the wall and some on the prison bars.
The Death Room:
At the back of the chambers is a long narrow room that contains something terrible. One of the heretics refused to repent and the results are in here. You'll need nerves of steel to enter this room. Just touch the door to open it but be prepared to be shocked if you go in.
The Courtroom:
There's seats for three Judges and they can sit at the tables covered with papers and documents. There's law books in the bookshelves surrounding the Court. There's also a Rack, full of poses and animations. One table contains "interrogation equipment" for RP use with the Rack.
There's a shaft of light from the grating above that shines on the floor. This is loaded with animations and poses for the victim (I mean, heretic) so they can react to the judges. Have fun finding out what you can do with them. Behind the Judges seats there's a corridor where they can hide out of view before performing a dramatic entrance or exit.
Poses and Animations:
You'll find poses and animations everywhere and they all have adjustment menus to accommodate avis of different shapes and sizes.
Everything’s cleared away by selecting “clear” from the Holodeck menu. The build is a blend of prims, mesh and sculpties giving a total land impact of a 138.

Disturbing but very well done!
Skillfully constructed scene, with many details and animations. The historical inquisition was a terrible aspect of the medieval period (and later), involving much suffering and cruelty, although the actual nature and extent of torture and death may have been exaggerated later -- thus I toned down some gruesome aspects in my own installation.
New uses for the Holodeck
So far I've used the Holodeck on my sim to be a sort of futuristic movie theater and for taking pictures. Given that the RP characters are playing in something fake, the clunkiness of some of the scenes adds to the RP and fits the style of the Exosphere station.
But this new scene is so detailed I am thinking of setting it up as for what it is (on top of RP characters having it at "the movies").I just have to figure out which dysfunctional character on my sim will get his own fully stocked courtroom and torture chamber.
I plan on having much fun ahead with it.
