lethal chamber
Death-dealing enclosure
A lethal chamber is an enclosed space designed to kill—typically animals through gas or asphyxiation.
The term appears most often in discussions of animal shelters euthanizing strays: The dog was taken to the lethal chamber.
Historically, the phrase also described execution methods and, notoriously, Nazi gas chambers.
