I find their definition of "trap house" to be entertaining.

Once associated with inner city crack dens, "trap house" has also become generic slang for any place where young people can score beer.

Seems like they pulled that from urban dictionary [1] and changed a few words to make it more "professional".

Originally used to describe a crack house in a shady neighborhood, the word has since been abused by high school students who like to pretend they're cool by drinking their mom's beer together and saying they're part of a "traphouse".

They cite/hyperlink that urban dictionary entry.
