Not much is understood about dreams; they may be prophetic, purely symbolic, or even nothing more than a random collection of memories, or any combination of the three, as well as anything else the world of fiction would like to make them. But one thing is for sure- dreams are unique to the individual, tailor-made by our own brains or granted by the Gods, with some of the chaos only being meaningful to the dreamer.
...Right?
Well, this isn't always true in fictionland. Occasionally, characters will have the exact same dream- or at the very least, the same dream from a different point-of-view. From the location, to the characters, to the "plot", the details will be the same, even if the perspective isn't. They may start out as normal dreams and then have something of a crossover later on, or they may share the dream from the get-go; in the end, the result is the same.
This can usually be chalked up to something supernatural. A prophecy, for example, may need more than one Chosen One — so The Chosen Many will all have the same dream about said prophecy. A character with the power to grant dreams may choose to trap everyone in the same dream, which is especially common if the dream is actually a nightmare. Or, mind-reading characters may be able to experience someone else's dream while asleep.
Whatever the reason, though, the characters have the same dream... and, with these dreams usually being rather important to the plot of the overall story, they'll no doubt remember it when they wake up and come to the realization that the dream was a shared experience. That said, this can also occur in a Dream Episode, with the episode's premise being that all the characters are having a single, chaotic, overlapping dream.
Compare the occasionally-overlapping Dream Land, where dreams aren't just mental, but take place in different realities altogether, one where the characters will occasionally take part in the same dream. Also compare to the Dream Walker, who can enter other people's dreams as an ability, and the Dream Weaver, with the power to alter or grant dreams. But You Were There, and You, and You is a distinct-but-related concept where the cast of a dream is made up of people the character already knows — but who aren't literally having the same dream as the dreamer. Can be faked in a Dream Deception.

Sleepless Domain: On the night she awakens her powers, every Magical Girl experiences what is known as "the Dream". The details of the Dream in question vary for each girl, but they generally seem to feature motifs that reflect the girl's personality and the power she receives. The one consistent element, however, is the appearance of a mysterious woman dressed in an Ethereal White Dress, whom none of the girls can remember after waking.

The Simpsons: Defied in "Who Shot Mr. Burns? Part Two": Chief Wiggum, tasked to find the person who seemingly attempted to murder Mr. Burns in the previous episode, is out of clues until he falls asleep and dreams a surreal dream in which Lisa Simpson tells him that he should look at Burns' suit. As Wiggum wakes up, he is approached by fellow policeman Eddie who suggests that they should check Burns' suit for clues. Wiggum asks him in return whether he had "the same backwards-talking dream with the flaming cards", to which Eddie replies with an irritated look and the words "I'll drive".

Encantadia: Sang'gre (Blue Blood Fairy) women can conceive offsprings by holding hands in dreams, sometimes deliberately with a Love Interest or a Chosen Conception Partner, but they can also be guided by the Powers That Be to conceive with a man they never knew before in reality. The sign of the conception's success is a flower appearing out of nowhere on the Sang'gre woman's palm when she wakes up.

Eberron: One of the planes is the domain of dreams, so this comes up a lot.
The quori, the spirits native to the realm of dreams, have instituted a massive shared dream over their conquered country of Riedra. The dream is the same for everyone, and broadcasts feelings of contentment, obedience, pride in the nation, and the occasional nightmare of the outside. The quori believe that this will stop the turning of the age, keeping Dal Quor in its age of darkness, but they don't have any actual proof of that.
The lizardfolk of Q'barra were given a task to protect the seals in the region that keep a demonic Overlord chained. To ensure this, the celestials bound them all to a single dream from the Silver Flame that teaches them language, morality, most skills, and even gives them missions. Because of this, lizardfolk civilization has remained completely unchanged for thousands of years. Unfortunately, it also makes it difficult for them to interact with outsiders. The concept of not knowing something from the dream is completely alien to them; their language is incomprehensible because it is filled with references to stories that the entire culture dreams about every night, and they've recently started attacking settlers without explanation. The settlers have been messing with the seals, but the lizardfolk don't understand the idea of accidentally messing with the seals. In their experience, everyone knows about the seals, so only someone who has been corrupted by the demon would interfere with them. In canon, the lizardfolk dream is immune to corruption by the quori, but Keith Baker suggests an adventure could lead to the discovery that they have in fact discovered a way to corrupt it in order to destabilize the region.

The Dark Lords of Nerima: The Dark Lords Ascendant, a sequel to the original story, has the heroes use Pegasus's abilities to connect to those asleep to conjure a mass shared dream for the citizens of Japan in order to directly communicate with them. This is to counter the Big Bad Corrupt Corporate Executive who used his media connections to portray the Sailor Senshi's attack on his headquarters as unjust attack on a honest businessman.

Explorers: Initially Ben is the only one having the recurring dream about flying over a circuit diagram, which turns out to be plans for a force-field generator that doubles as a Reactionless Drive. Later he has another dream, this time showing how to build an oxygen generator — but now his friends, Wolfgang and Darren, are both there as well, which confirms that (as they had already guessed) the dreams are actually messages sent by aliens. At the end, the three — now joined by Ben's Love Interest Lori — have another dream, this one showing the biggest diagram yet.

Fraggle Rock: Fraggles can share one another's dreams. All they need to do is have their heads touching and say, "Dream a dream and see / What a dream can be." Then, when they fall asleep, they can enter one dream. There's even a whole song dedicated to the ritual: "Dream a Dream (and See)."
The reboot series Fraggle Rock: Back to the Rock gives this ability and the song to the separate-but-very-similar Craggle species instead. Craggles spend more time sharing their dreams while asleep than being awake, and in said dreams are far more energetic than their sleepy awakened selves.

Sym-Bionic Titan: In "Shaman of Fear", Lance and Ilana talk about how they dreamed forming Titan in the middle of the night to investigate a giant stone before getting blasted by energy. When they ask Octus about this, he notes that something caused a blacked-out memory in his data.

W.I.T.C.H.: In "E is for Enemy", Nerissa uses her Dream Weaver abilities to try and kill the Guardians in their dreams, which would harm them in real life. As an apparent side effect of this, the girls find that when they're asleep in the same room, they end up in the same dream world. They take advantage of this by having a sleepover, thus enabling them to all be in the same dream at the same time, and fight Nerissa's attack together.

In Fate/Grand Order, the protagonist often shares dreams with their Servants due to the nature of their contract. Oftentimes, this involves pulling them into a dreamscape where they confront the less savory parts of their Servants' personalities buried deep within their psyches. Other times these dreams can become muddled with reality as a result of an outside antagonist, such as the protagonist's meeting with Katsushika Hokusai.

The Bible: In Matthew 2:1-12, the Magi (or "wise men") are three distinguished men who have travelled from afar to visit the infant Jesus. Before they reach Bethlehem, they visit King Herod, who asks them to tell him the baby's whereabouts. However, after paying tribute to the infant Jesus, all three Magi are warned in a dream that Herod intends to find and kill the baby, so they return to their homes via a different route, telling Herod nothing.

Foxtrot: This is often the case in several arcs involving one of the Fox family members having a dream, wherein, if any of the others in the family within the dream, they seem to be experiencing the dream as vividly as the one dreaming is and can even influence their sibling's/parent's dream themselves. It's lampshaded in an arc involving Peter having a dream about The Odyssey while trying to write a report about it; in the first comic in the arc, Jason tells Peter to not include him in any dreams Peter may end up having. Gilligan Cut to Jason being in Peter's dream anyway, displeased and reaming Peter out.

In El Goonish Shive, the "Parable" storyline is eventually revealed to be a dream shared by almost everyone in Moperville due to the actions of a unicorn with Dream Weaver magic. He was trying to shortcut his search for people with royal lineage, but got tangled up in another wizard's dream magic, which mucked the spell up. This results in the "Do I Know You?" Anomaly, wherein total strangers are able to mutually recognize each other due to remnant memories from the dream.

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic:
Exploited in "Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep", where the main characters are hunting the Tantabus, a nightmare-creating creature that infests dreams and, when its host dreams of someone else, becomes able to enter that person's dreams as well. At first, Princess Luna tries to chase it between individual dreams, but when Pinkie dreams about sharing ice cream with everyone else in Ponyville this no longer becomes a viable option. Instead, Luna decides to use her magic to make everyone in Ponyville share a single, collective lucid dream, in which the Tantabus would then be forced to manifest. The result is a nighttime version of Ponyville hosting the dreaming forms of all of its citizens, each independently aware and able to modify themselves and their environment.
In the Cold Open of "Uprooted", the Tree of Harmony calls the Young Six to Ponyville by bringing them into a collective dream.

Doctor Who:
In "The End of Time", everyone in the world has the same dream of seeing The Master laughing, foreshadowing him turning all of them into himself.
In "Amy's Choice", the Doctor, Amy and Rory are trapped switching back and forth between two realities (one where Amy and Rory are living in a small village expecting a child, and one where they are in the TARDIS) each time they fall asleep (always signalled by the sound of birds singing). Whenever they wake up in one of the realities, they are sure that the other reality was a dream and the current one is the real deal, which is a problem since they encounter mortal dangers in both realities and time continues to pass in a reality where they are asleep (and helpless). They are challenged to figure out which reality is the dream, where they can "safely" die. It turns out both realities were a dream.
In the Christmas special "Last Christmas", the Doctor and Clara arrive in an arctic research station where the crew seem to have trouble reminding how they came to be there. The Doctor eventually figures out that this is because they are all (including Clara and himself) trapped into a Shared Dream caused by some crab creatures that are sucking their brains out in the real world.

Expecting to Fall into Ruin, I Aim to Become a Blacksmith: When the protagonist Kururi is travelling with Iris, who has had a history of teasing/flirting with him, she insists on getting a shared room at an inn to save costs, which makes Kururi extremely nervous. That night, he dreams of Eliza, the girl he’s actually dating, punching him repeatedly in the stomach. Waking up the next day, it turns out Iris dreamed of that as well, and can’t stop laughing due to the contrast punching him has with Eliza’s typical Proper Lady behavior.

House of Anubis:
Nina, Fabian, and Amber all receive an ominous dream about an upcoming dance, which ends with Senkhara pushing Nina into the tunnels' chasm. They all discover the next morning that the dream was a shared experience, and soon learn that everything in the dream is coming true.
Senkhara's Dream Weaver abilities allow her to trap people in very realistic dreams. These dreams often wind up being a shared experience for all the people within it, and they all wake up at the exact same time once the dream is over. One example is when she came to seek the Osirian, appearing to Fabian in a dream. Eddie wound up with the same dream, because he can see ghosts as a natural Osirian ability, but Fabian denied having a dream once they both woke up.
