I bought these ghost millipedes at my local reptile store and want to confirm what they are. They said they were just called ghosts. But with a little research it looks like they are called smokey ghosts. What do you guys think?

Not sure, coloration looks similar to Orthoporus ornatus to me. But it also looks a bit too dark to be Orthoporus.

That may be a color variant of Narceus gordanus (Smoky Ghosts), a clearer picture with better lighting will help greatly. What is the size?
I am near sure it is not O. ornatus, it is too thick, and the colors are too muted.
Hope this helps,

I was thinking smokey ghost and sorry about the quality the camera on my phone actually has a crack. So it sucks

I think it looks more like Narceus americanus.

Definitely looks like Narceus americanus. It looks a bit like that mustard yellow Ozarks morph. What color are the bands @Storymaster92 are they yellowish, or more of a red orange color? It's tough to tell from that photo.
