Ghost pepper?

I think it's a ghost pepper. If not any ideas?
 
I have some "not ghost peppers' from Walmart just to see how they grew.  Their fruit is starting to about like that.  Krogers and Walmart here sometimes have clam shell packages of the fruit that looks like that.  It is popping up often in mainstream, so I am willing to bet that a mainstream wholesale seed place is responsible.  Its as if the term "ghost pepper" is becoming generic.

On the other hand, I have had occasion to see ghost pepper seed throw smoother than normal pods.  Especially the early ones. 

BTW: The peppers that came from Walmart were mighty hot, but they did not have that ghost pepper flavor.  If blindfolded, I would have guessed scorpion of some kind.
