Along with the items displayed, the building itself is said to be quite haunted, and some of the people working there walked off the job and refused to come back.
Per the station: The museum is built inside a mansion owned by Cyril S. Wengert, a prominent businessman in Vegas’ history. “The Wengerts, who lived here, were instrumental in really helping Vegas turn into a city,” Zak explained. “The hauntings that came along with it… is just that extra bonus.”
Museum staff claim that dark rituals were rumored to take place in the mansion’s basement in the 1970s. They also say that hostile spirits terrorized previous occupants. “This place was meant for me. Literally. It wasn’t my decision,” Zak said. “I think the spirits that are around me and in this [building] guided me here to own this place.”
