it's possible that he fell asleep before the sound startled him and he actually dreamed the sound, and everything after it.
also, at the very end, it looks like this:
"The general made one of his deepest bows. "I see," he said. "Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed. On guard, Rainsford." . . .
He had never slept in a better bed, Rainsford decided."
in most printings of the story, at least in the one I read in class, there is a huge space between the last full paragraph and the last sentence. This suggest that Rainsford had just woken up.
I don't know, it's just something i noticed.
The "he had never slept in a better bed" thing implied to me that he had faught Zaroff and threw him out the window of the chateau. I don't know. I read it in class and my teacher says Zaroff died and Rainsford won, not that he'd dreamt the entire thing.
Also, keep in mind the fact that if the whole thing had been a dream, he probably would have fallen asleep while sitting down on the yacht, so he wouldn't have been sleeping in a bed.
I might be wrong, but that's my theory.
And your theory is probably more credible than mine, to be honest. My English teacher just threw the "just a dream" theory at us and I thought it was interesting. That part about him falling asleep on the yacht is also a good point.
