no no....this story is about giants who was evil and such. I didn't think it was true but then in the begining of the bible in Genesis it mentions something like 'and there were giants in those days'....So how come it doesn't go into detail about those giants?

Yes - It is a Bible story - Read:

Enoch (ancestor of Noah)
Enoch (Hebrew: חֲנוֹךְ; Tiberian: Ḥănōḵ, Standard: Ḥanokh) is a name occurring twice in the generations of Adam.

Despite the fame, the second mention of the name merely says that Enoch walked with God, and was not, for God took him, that he lived 365 years, and was an ancestor of Noah (Genesis 5:22-29). Despite the brief description, its highly esoteric nature lead Enoch to be one of the main two focal points for much of the 1st millennium BC Jewish mysticism-

The story of Enoch is found in the book of Genesis, and it is still there, just like it has been since the Torah was first recorded. Unless you're talking about a book of Enoch, which I've never heard of.
