I would say its the mysterious brain that store and maintain the ever recordings, our dreams can fool ourselves and make us believe it no matter how bizarre and it is creativity at work. I am aware of it ever since my personal encounter from dreams to happening and from thoughts that has happen, nothing supernatural and all I can say is what goes around comes around.

You dream of the things you see in your life but they don't behave rational, our mind concoct the scenarios without rules & ethics or any code in reality. That is creativity in extreme without boundary, you did not dream of seeing Jesus or Allah did you? Because he is not in your mind, if you do and you are not a believer, then you got a message:) Haha just joking.

Dejavu already have a rather rational explanation, like the brain having a hiccup. The brain is a constance recorder and imagine the recording had a glitch and blackout for a fraction of a second, when resume, you tends to feel like you have been there before. Our mind can go between dreamland and reality in split second, so it is not ironic.

When it happen in dreams before it happen, then your conscience may wanted it to happen and the brain concocted the realm. However, if it is an incident that happen after the dream, you should check out Extra Sensory Perception (six sense). What is more intriguing is if it happen while you are awake better known as instinct, woman claim to have better intuition they say.

Your brain play tricks on you especially the things you worry the most, it appear time and again and dreams too are recorded just like reality, when the two memory meet, you can imagine what can happen, which is real and dream? Although I have no religion but I am open for all possibilities and would assume that our life is like video game to the higher being.

It makes life a lot more interesting to imagine yourself defy the instructions fed to you maybe doing things differently than being you like system failure and you infect others or got people into trouble, nahte83 maybe experiencing careless game player or interference of some kind and others see ghosts that they are not suppose to, maybe those are reserved lives waiting to take on their role as we can die many times but still got some lives to spare.

I do got involved in road accidents many times on a bike and ever time it happen, I told myself its not time yet and the scary part is I dream that I die, maybe I did and running on reserves.

I nope you don't mind I say something after reading your story, please don't be offended since you made it public.
I try to imagine what you see based on your words and are not as impress at the "shadow" since it didn't interact with you, as for someone tries to open the hotel room door, well, you didn't ask the cleaner if she is have cleaned the room your friend in, it could be her.

It is common for people who believe in ghosts to think they saw it compare to someone who don't believe in such a thing, and the part that you got intruded could be as simply as wet dreams due to the porn movie you may have watched, I remember my experience of sexual intercourse is after I watched them.

Of course you can feel it, maybe you touched yourself and you didn't realize, as for man, well sperm is the evidence. I remember there were a few movies on TV that portray such incidents, could that have been the caused?

Anyway I am more into six sense than ghost.

You got me wrong, I did not say its fake, just try to screen it with the known human condition before spending time wander about the never ending story.

My personal experience is even more bizarre, you put percentage to describe as if there is a credible survey in statistic is from your own impression just like me trying to make sense of it. Since this is PHD school, we should practice science first then just ghosts stories or someone's creative writings.
