My new little ghost corn!

I joined this forum originally to ask about the tragic death of my first snake (as my roomate suspected he'd been sold too small). Tonight, I'm very happy to post about my new snake! I'm picking him up in two days. I found him locally on kijiji and he's apparently had ten meals and two sheds. He certainly looks a lot fatter and healthier than my poor little first attempt. I couldn't wait to show him off so I'm posting the picture I was sent to pick from (there were four available).

I think his name is going to be Samael! I'll post more pics when I get the little guy home.
 
Since I'm a newb, can I be the one to ask the stupid question? What are the subtleties and differences between this and an anery? I can't tell just by looking at this pic. Is it the head that gives it away?
 
The breeder is an amateur so I'm just going by what he said, lol. He said this guy was an anery but also considered a ghost (I just asked if he had any of the 'black and grey' babies left because I really don't know much about morphs and wanted to make sure we were on the same page, seemed smartest). I'm assuming he meant it was a cross showing both of those characteristics but maybe he's just got no clue? If it's a straight up anery I'll make sure to call him that so I don't look like an idiot in the future c:
 
Ghost is anery plus hypo. I picked out my little ghost from some anery siblings, and while they were very much "black and grey", he seemed lighter and had a light blush on him. This was from an established reputable breeder, so I'm confident of his morph. Based on the pic, I'm leaning toward ghost, but I couldn't say for certain unless he was next to an anery, :D
 
I'd be willing to say there was just a lil miscommunication, and its an anery that's het hypo, and you could say it's an anery het ghost. That's wrong lol but enough people describe snakes with hets that add up to a trade name that I'd bet that's what the breeder meant. Pretty little anery :)
