When writing a novel, what is your advice when writing chapters of a dark nature?

Asked by NerdyKeith (5489points) April 19th, 2016

The villains of my story are very sadistic and cruel. There is one particular part of my story; where they have a female character brutally beaten.

I obviously do not condone this in any way. But I am trying to convey a very evil enemy and trying to be as dark as possible. So that the readers really despise them.

Will people think I went too far if they read that? Am I going too dark?
