Strange Discoveries by Housekeepers in Las Vegas

Las Vegas, known for its extravagant and unconventional atmosphere, has led to numerous unusual and sometimes disturbing discoveries made by housekeepers in hotel rooms.

Unusual Finds in Hotel Rooms

The eccentric nature of Las Vegas often leads to unexpected finds in hotel rooms. Housekeepers have reported encountering a wide range of bizarre and unique items that visitors have left behind. Often these items include taxidermied animals, odd furniture, and even a full-size replica of a dinosaur. These discoveries reflect the city's reputation for extravagance and the unusual.

Security and the Dead Bodies

While specific stories may vary, housekeepers and security personnel in Las Vegas have had to deal with a disturbingly high number of unusual and sometimes disturbing discoveries. According to security, in some cases, they seem to happen frequently, with deaths caused by overdose, heart attacks, or other circumstances. Security often keeps such information confidential, but it's not rare for a dead body to be found each week, and in some cases, multiple times.

Casino and Hospitality Industry Perspectives

When working in the hospitality industry, what was once considered "strange” can become just a part of the job. For housekeepers, they have seen a range of disturbing and unusual items left behind in hotel rooms. Beyond the mentioned items, housekeepers might encounter drugs, needles, random blood sprays, unconscious people (both male and female), and a wide variety of items ranging from wigs and weaves to indigenous and rare animals of various sizes and varying levels of danger.

Notable Discoveries

One particularly notable discovery was made at the MGM. A maid found a bag containing an astounding amount of poker chips, including 265,100 in chips, with some larger denomination chips at 150,000 in 25,000-chips. The owner was called, and the maid returned 3 days later to receive one of the 25,000-chips as a reward.

Another significant discovery involved drugs. In some cases, small amounts of drugs are disposed of by the casino, while larger amounts result in the police being called. In one incident, a female, estimated to be in her early 20s, was found dead in a room for 30-35 hours, the body never identified, and no charges brought.

Lastly, a macabre discovery was made in a room with no registered guest for 3 weeks. Upon inspection, a maid supervisor found a dead body, leading to a coroner’s report noting the body had been deceased for 30-35 hours. Despite this, the identity of the deceased remains unknown and no charges have been brought.

In summary, Las Vegas, while it doesn't condemn such activities, thrives on this unique blend of darkness and indulgence. The city's motto, "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas", underscores its policy of not passing judgment but rather allowing its guests to experience freedom and indulgence.
