From childhood to current I've occasionally had serial dreams where they'd pick back up, either direct continuations or at a new act. Even more frequent are dreams in a location I "knew" from other dreams. Sometimes I can fix them to other remembered dreams, other times I wonder if it's just my mind playing tricks - and if that's any different than a dream anyhow.
I'm a deep sleeper but usually wake up sans alarm, and I find that I will go for long stretches without remembering dreams when I wake like this. I remember more dreams from times when I'm ill or have other reason my sleep is disturbed. Humorously, this means that a noticeable share of dreams I remember involve at some point that I need to use the commode. Ah well. :)
I don't remember any recurring nightmares, but that may be just creative editing over time.
Just to add in another category, sometimes I do "work" in my dream. Things that could make challenging but boringly repetitive flash games. When I wake up I don't feel mentally rested. I don't appreciate those.
