There were beheadings, firing squads, gas chambers, starvation, etc. I have even read about times when Witness prisoners were made to stand in sub-freezing temperatures while water was poured on them until they froze to death. The United States Holocaust Museum is a good place to learn about NAZI torture, not only of JW's, but all sorts of people who were under NAZI oppression.

The only religious celebration of Jehovah's Witnesses is the Memorial of Christ's death held each year in early spring.
Death by Sheer Torture was created in 1981.
No. The only thing we celebrate is the memorial of Jesus Christ's death which is held in March/April depending on daylight savings, as that has an impact on when we observe it. But perhaps, there was a convention or assembly of Jehovah's Witnesses going on in your area.
Jehovah's Witnesses do not celebrate most national and religious holidays. However, they annually observe the occasion of Jesus' death, which they call the "Memorial Occasion". On a personal level, many Jehovah's Witnesses do celebrate weddings and wedding anniversaries. They can also enjoy special occasions like weddings, school graduations and baby showers.
torture by fire
The disciples were eye witnesses to the ends of the earth of the resurrected Messiah. They watched as he ascended until he was no longer in sight. They were willing to undergo torture and death to spread the gospel knowing their reward is in heaven.
They don't. The death of a loved one is always a painful experience, Jehovah's Witnesses, like anyone are totally devestated when a loved on is murdered. Unfortunately they recognise violent crimes as a part of life so they look to God for comfort.

Fear of torture and death.
No, Jehovah's Witnesses are not a ritualistic religion and have few religious customs. They commemorate annually the death of Jesus in early spring and hold regular meetings for prayer and bible study. Preaching is also considered part of their religious practice but they do not have numerious religious festivals, pilgramids or celebrations.
