I have an iPhone 5 running on iOS 9.0.2 and not only does the power turn on by itself-a few seconds after I've turned it off but the screen's dim control comes up and activates when you are not in Settings and a song starts playing when I don't even have Music app on.
What can I do to remedy this? Has anyone even seen it before?

I've never seen it, try a forced restart. You will lose no data at all when you do this.
To force restart your device, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least ten seconds, until you see the Apple logo.

I'll keep this in mind. Of course I won't know if your solution does anything until the next time it happens, but thanks.
When it first started happening I was in New Orleans so I thought (jokingly) maybe I passed to close to a voodoo shop or someone put a curse on me. At that point it was just too strange to describe. But it just happened in Charlotte airport and here in NYC I've gotten passed the witchcraft phase.
That sounds a little creepy. 😁 Hopefully the forced restart will fix it.
Yeah it is both creepy and spooky and also a pain in the butt when you find you've no power left!
