Odd dreams

Ok first off I am new to this so bare with me lol ,... Usually make dreams make sense but this past week every night I am having these paranormal dreams where I am talking to an unknown spirit, I am not scared in my dream, I can't see him but he's there and all he has told me is that his name is James. Then last night my friend showed me this ghost app on his phone so when we were at the lake I downloaded it and the first word was James on the app so I shut it off then two mins later my friends phone on the app said James is my dream connected to real life who is this James and why is he trying to talk to me in my dream plus waking life?) help I am confused
