Might be helpful to have more info, like which engine, miles on it, how its been running, how its been maintained, ect.
Sounds like its seized up if you cant hand turn it. Did this condition come about suddenly after some event???
Liquid in the cylinders can cause hydraulic locking, so removing all of the spark plugs to relieve the condition might let you hand turn the engine & get an idea if & whats in there. Let us know how it goes.
