Crucio, (One "C" after the "U") or the Cruciatus Curse is a torture spell.

Crucio in classical Latin means "I torture", originating from crux (genitive crucis), which means "torture platform or stake", or more specifically, "cross". The word excruciating is descended from the same root - crucifixion was a form of torturous execution.
