A few of those are more Gaelic/Celtic than English. Leprechauns are Irish, Cú Síth is Scottish and banshees are Scottish AND Irish.
But yeah, England has a pretty fucking rich mythological history.

A couple of those are Irish and Scottish or Celtic and not really English.

OT: Well there are plenty of different races in Ireland mythology. Although not the wierdest the one I would like to see in a game the most would be something like the Tuath Dé Danann.
TBF, that was back when there only was Albion and Hibernia. And didn't Wee Finn Macool build his bridge over to Hibernia?
I think we can safely call them all British.
Well not really as at the time it was Celtic Britain. Britain has since had many different influences from Saxons and Normans to have to state that they are Celtic and not British. s far as I remember the Fiannaíochta are Irish so Finn is is definitely Irish.

in my country (belgium) there arent a lot of mythological creatures but the one that pops into my mind when i read this thread is the legend of kludde. Supposedly he's some kind of demon that takes on the form a big black dog that walks on his hind legs and carries a chain around wich he uses to scare people. He counts as a water demon that dwells under bridges, hollow trees and water pools where he hides and waits for people to pass by and then jump onto their neck and doesnt let go until the person has reached their destination. Other than that he sneaks around farms in the middle of the night rattling his chain just to get on your nerves or freak you out.
