Thank You very much for the comment!
What you are asking about, what do you mean with "historically accurate details mentioned"?
Of course, everything that I mentioned is a historical malarkey, no more than a make-believe, but this make-believe is based on real historical facts of late medieval age (15-16 century): inquisition and witchhunt; knowledge of human reflexes, sensibility and anatomy; ideas about the soul and its location in the brain. Actualy any known herbal for the "broth" that amplifies the possibility of sleep paralysis and old hag syndrome, doesn't exist. One hardly can imagine that some torturers or executioners ever tried to invent a torture that involved strange mental phenomena such as nightmares with the old hag or other ghostly entities. But if they would try, then combining these nightmares with tickle (or tickle-fuck) torture would be a very strongly recommended move because of heavy sexual charge of old hag's assaults and because of every other feature of an old hag syndrome (chilling fear, helplesness, etc.).
Piece of text in this link has two references; if you wish, you can try to find some historical confirmations, proofs of the existance of tickle torture.

I don't know the truth, I just developed a torture of feet by one goat tongue into a much more sexually charged torture of lying and nude female body with many livestock animals at the same moment. And all this action was performed after smearing her not with salty water, but with sticky honey dissolved in a little amount of fresh water - which was for adding some pleasure for "messy" fetishists too
