Has this ever happened to anyone?

Hi I am new to this forum, and never really thought much about my dreams being lucid or not. I have known for a long time that I have very powerful and imaginative dreams that I can control what I do. Twitter lead me here.
My question is this. My daughter frequently slept with me when I was single. I had a very vivid dream one night about werewolves and protecting my daughter. In my dream I made sure my daughter was protected at all cost. Which in turn meant killing werewolves regardless of age. I remember knowing I was dreaming and deciding that my daughter would not be harmed. I was startled awake by my daughter yelling and crying. I asked her what was wrong and she proceeded to tell me the dream I was having, including the part where I had repeatedly stabbed a younger (puppy in her words)werewolf that was running towards my daughter.
Is this a common occurrence? I was very unsettled by this idea. Because I have very intense dreams on a regular basis. Not all scary but all very vivid and colorfully imaginative.

The similar content could be related to outside noise triggering dream imagery. For example, the werewolves could have been caused by you both hearing a dog barking or something.

It's pretty common for two people who have similar experiences in life to have similar dreams. If you both watched the same movie, saw the same things at your trip to the store, etc. then you will both have similar dreams about those occurrences resulting in odd coincidences.

It's also extremely easy to fabricate fake memories of dream experiences. Dream memories are very splotchy and inconsistent. If your memory was full of holes your brain might fill in those gaps with what your daughter explained simply because of the similarity.
