Description

'Unhappy was the lot of Húrin; for all that Morgoth knew of the working of his malice Húrin knew also, but lies were mingled with the truth, and aught that was good was hidden or distorted [...] For twenty-eight years he had been captive in Angband, and he was grown grim to look upon.' 

JRR Tolkien: The Silmarillion: Chapter 22: Of the Ruin of Doriath

Almost 30 years of breathing foul air, being beaten by harsh weather, no food, drink or sleep and knowledge of all bad things that fell on his family. Only after they were dead Morgoth thought he could use Hurin better when he was free. Yet even that did not break greatest warrior of Men.
