Who knows what a shotgun shack is?

2. A home

With a long straight hallway where, if you stood at the front door, you could shoot a shotgun out the back door.

3. Partially correct
It's actually a house with no hallway at all, just a series of rooms tacked together in a row. The doors are all lined up from the front to the back door so if you were to shoot a shotgun through the front, the pellets would fly cleanly through and out the back (presuming there was no one in the way).

And why anyone would be shooting shotguns through the place is beyond me.

5. That's right! it's not actually a hallway
My dad's best friend restored a shotgun house in Louisville and the place is awesome.
