Visitors can pay their respects to wise guys from across the country with a visit to The Mob Museum, which among other artifacts features the bloodied and bullet-ridden wall that the St. Vegas doesn't shy away from its lurid past. By the end of the decade, all casinos on the strip had allegedly been sold to legitimate owners. The mob ruled Vegas until the 1980s, when the FBI began cracking down on the corruption and routing out illegitimate business dealings. Mob families from Chicago and New York began pouring money into Las Vegas in the 1950s, running the Riviera, Stardust, and Desert Inn, and the Hacienda, Gold Nugget, Sahara and Fremont casinos by the 1960s. The story goes that twenty minutes after Siegel was killed in California, his associate, Davie 'the Jew' Berman, walked into the Flamingo and announced he was in charge. Lanksy took over the casino after Siegel died, and the Flamingo and the Las Vegas strip began to flourish.
When the Flamingo's profits started going south, Seigel was assassinated by an unknown killer in Beverly Hills. Siegel was a New York based mobster who is credited with being one of the founders of the Las Vegas strip, funding the construction and opening of the Flamingo Hotel in 1946 with investments from associates like mobster Meyer Lanksy. It was home to notorious gangsters like Davie 'the Jew' Berman and Bugsy Siegal. The metal barrel containing the remains was discovered by people strolling along the Lake Mead shore on May 1. They came upon the rusted barrel embedded the in mud along the shoreline, and when they peered into a corroded opening they discovered the skeletal corpse. The barrel did not move… It was not like the barrel washed up.' 'The water level has dropped so much over the last 30 to 40 years that, where the person was located, if a person were to drop the barrel in the water and it sinks, you are never going to find it unless the water level drops,' Spencer said, 'The water level has dropped and made the barrel visible. Ray Spencer of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police told the Las Vegas Review Journal that the barrel could have been dumped into the lake over the side of a boat. The Las Vegas strip was once notoriously dominated by mob-run casinos from the late '40s through the '80s. Las Vegas police said that the skeletal body found in a metal barrel along Lake Mead's receding shoreline was a man who had died from a gunshot wound sometime between the mid-1970s or early 80s. She then explained that corpse water is traditionally used in witchcraft, which goes along with the theme of her shop: dark magic and fantasy. And that just kind of worked out when we found out that there was a corpse floating in a barrel. 'Most of us who have lived in Vegas for a long time have been questioning our water quality for years. Hanks further told KTLA that her marketing idea started as a joke and that the water bottles were made to boost the shop's online presence. It’s just for entertainment purposes, do not ingest.'
'I don’t want to steal water from Lake Mead to sell to people, but it’s a nice little concoction of water, some witch hazel, some glass rocks, dirt, and some green mica to give it a little bit of a green tint to it.
The shop owner said that she prefers to not take any water from the largest reservoir in the U.S., which has seen its water levels dramatically decrease over the past three decades. The water, named 'Lake Mead Corpse Water,' does not actually come from the lake itself. A witchcraft store in Las Vegas is selling 'corpse water,' just a few weeks after a body in a barrel was found at the bottom of Lake Mead.Ĭharlie Hanks, the owner of Blaspheme Boutique, came up with the idea as she was inspired by the creepy discoveries that were made earlier in May.
