I think you should avoid things like dream stalkers. Not everyone has dream stalkers. I have avoided reading anything about them because I know that as soon as I read about them and what they are, they will start to show up in my dreams. That may harm dreaming for a lot of people, especially if they are at all scary. If this is more of a simulation, I'd say don't do that. If it's more of a game, in which case you'd need some villains to fight, I'd say go for it. I think it would be much more interesting so make the villain the dreamer's subconscious, though. Especially because there could be clues about the villain's identity throughout the game.
