 The story concludes.
The particular dream descriptions you have given relate to you and one of two friends with whom you daily discussed your dreams. Previously, you referred to "3 people . . . with no prior discussion". You related the common aspects of the dreams, namely two meetings in matching circumstances, but the rest of the dreams differed. Previously, you referred to "having the exact same dream". Hence, your account has changed substantially.
Given that you and your friends were "heavily involved in the paranormal" and had daily discussions, I don't find it very surprising that you had dreams that were often similar and sometimes seemed to be the same overall story experienced from different viewpoints. I note that many of the details of the story, such as a boat trip, a castle, the need to hide, and some kind of on-going adventure, are elements typical of short stories, especially those written for children. In the circumstances, what you have described is interesting (especially to a dreams researcher), but adequately explainable as due to your common interests, regular discussions and (possibly) shared knowledge of popular children's fiction.
Since you don't wish to give a full acount, my conclusion has to be that dreams often involve concepts that relate in some way to the dreamer's previous thoughts and experiences, but you have presented nothing that suggests the supernatural "really exists".
This has been a good illustration of how something which initially seems amazing can become relatively mundane in appearance once more of the circumstances are uncovered.
