Celeste (Britt Irvin) is a villainess from the first Garage Sale Mystery film (airdate September 14, 2013). She is the lone female member out of a trio of burglars who had been robbing houses after frequenting garage sales.
Celeste worked with her boyfriend, Ralph, and their cohort, Fred, in the burglaries, and they were showing in their disguises committing a break-in theft in the beginning of the film. The trio later broke into the home of Kate and Ben Douglas, as they were planning to take the couple's money. However, after finding Kate dead, they escaped, but not before Celeste took Kate's jade Buddha. The villainess attempted to sell the figurine at a pawn shop, which she does, only to find more figurines matching the ones from the same house.
Later in the film, the evil Celeste returned to the Douglas home with her cohorts and attempted to steal the same seven figurines she saw at the shop (as the house had the genuine ones). Celeste and Ralph were thwarted when Ben appeared and held them at gunpoint, leading to the trio being taken into custody. During her interrogation with Detective Adam Iverson, Celeste attempted to claim that she was being abused by Ralph and that she was forced into helping him, but after Iverson saw through the ruse, the villainess confessed and revealed her role, which had her breaking in through the windows and letting her cohorts inside. Though Celeste was arrested, Iverson stated to Jennifer Shannon that Celeste would most likely avoid jail due to having a clean record
