A pun on "Spanish Inquisition," the Fannish Inquisition is a convention program item featuring a Q&A with bidders for Worldcons or other traveling conventions or upcoming seated conventions. The audience is given the opportunity to ask questions, including tough ones.

The first one with this name was held at Noreascon Two in 1980, although such grilling took place previously at Business Meetings.
