Starting Points

The realms beyond the one of mortals vary from setting to setting. Pits inhabited by demons or other fiends, the underworld where the dead go, dream realms inhabited by fey creatures, eternal storms of elemental energy and the realms of the gods. And beyond that are realms that make no sense, alternate realities or weird places that operate in rules beyond comprehension.
Adventures set in these realms tend to be at a higher power level, as characters face powerful creatures and godlike beings, and must survive these very realms too.
Also of interest will be the Random Tools Guide for Planes Beyond. Finally for more PDF titles try Random Table Titles for Fantasy.
Major Titles

Some PDFs are much larger and comprehensive.
- Castle Oldskull - 333 Realms of Entropy from Kent David Kelly is filled with tables for creating realms by a dominant terrain, with some examples of these planes.
- For other planes the Plane Maker from Ennead Games makes total sense. Filled with tables about the plane, what inhabiteds it and how to get there. Depending on your planar adventures, Deities and Pantheons may also be of interest.
Free and Pay What You Want Options

If you like pdfs and random tables then there are some options. And where you find one you might find more...
- For things on other planes, using the Weird Shit Generator (Fantasy) from Never Engine probably works. PWYW.
- Pink Dice Bag Publishing helps us name otherworldly creatures with 100 Celestial Names.
- For more unknowable names, Azukail Games has Weird, Eldritch Name Generator.

To find more related titles by a particular publisher the "Customers Who Bought This Title also Purchased" bar at the bottom of product description is useful.
- Out there, there will be demons somewhere, so Piecewise Games has the Demon Generator with 32 pages of tables covering Fire, Filth, Pristine, Curse, Storm, Deep, Grave and Azoic elements.
- Pen and Screen Creations has 100 Demands from a Fey, inspiring encounters in Faerie Courts or Dream Realms.
- Often things are weird beyond the mortal realm, so 100 Strange Magical Items for all fantasy RPGs from Grinning Skull Studios can help capture this.
- Spectre Press has a supplement with tables for small planes of existence in RPGPundit Presents #97: Pocket Planes. And a similar title is #95: Alternate Material Planes
Other Titles

Things that don't fit in the other categories.
- For D&D Oliver Darkshire has written The Infinite Staircase on DM's Guild, covering the planes with information and tables.
- The Map Feature Name Elemental Planes from Ennead Games is quite specific, covering area names with two d100 tables for each of Air, Earth, Fire and Water.
