"What are some Celtic Creatures? And where can I find extended information on them?"
Ohoho. Well, let's see... Most Celtic Creatures are also regarded as Irish, Scottish, and Welsh Creatures (among other things) as well. So starting from those three points would likely get you on the right path.

That said, some Celtic Creatures would the Sidhe (Banshees, Cu Sidhe, Cait Sidhe, Leannan Sidhe, and so on. Much of the Creatures of Irish Myth are regarding as the Sidhe, whom are considered to be a type of Faerie or Elven folk, so similar rules apply to them as with the more Germanic and English variation. The Tuatha De Danaan are the Sidhe, but due to Christian influence, were reduced to the faerie folk we know today. Before then, they were Gods and Goddesses of Celtic Myth, which ranges from many different cultures. https://quikquarter.net/page/Irish+Mythology, https://quikquarter.net/page/Scottish+Mythology, https://quikquarter.net/page/Welsh+Mythology, Irish, Scottish, and Welsh in that order. We sadly do not have a Page solely dedicated to Celtic Mythology and the many Creatures and beings of its stories and legends, but as I said, these should act as alright stepping stones.

If you would like for me to, I could PM you some links to some sites and videos that better cover the subject if the information found here isn't completely satisfactory.
