They often have strong cultural elements. Like stories might revolve around local festivals, family traditions, or the relationship with nature which is very important in Cebuano culture. For instance, a story could be about a family preparing for the Sinulog Festival. It would show how they make costumes, practice dances, and the significance of the whole event in their community.
The scariest element is often the sense of the unknown. In Cebuano horror stories, things like strange apparitions that appear out of nowhere, such as the White Lady. You don't know when or where she will show up, and that's terrifying.
Another great one could be 'Ang Babaye sa Suba'. It delves into the life and experiences of a woman by the river, with elements of local culture and traditions interwoven in the narrative. The story gives you a good feel for the Cebuano way of life and the importance of the river in their community.
One well - known Cebuano horror story is about the 'White Lady' who haunts a particular road. Legend has it that she was a woman who died tragically there and now appears to passing motorists at night. Drivers often claim to see her figure in white suddenly appear in front of their cars, causing them to swerve or have accidents.
One great novel is 'The Great Gatsby' by F. Scott Fitzgerald. The language used is rich and descriptive. It has a lot of beautiful sentences and a wide range of vocabulary. Reading it can expose you to different sentence structures, which is very helpful for English learners.
The basic rules of writing English books in English usually include:

Table of contents: The table of contents of a book should clearly list the chapters and sections of the book so that readers can easily find the information they need.
4. The summary should include the main plot, characters, and background information so that readers can better understand the content of the book.
Foreword: The foreword should briefly introduce the book's subject, author, and publication information. It should also summarize the structure and content of the book.

Whether the original English version or the Chinese-English version was better depended on one's personal needs and preferences. If you want to understand the plot and characters in the book more deeply, or if you want to better understand some difficult English vocabulary, then a Chinese-English comparison might be more suitable. If one was familiar with the language style and expression of the book or wanted to read and understand it more easily, the original English version might be more suitable.
However, it was important to note that regardless of whether you chose the original English version or the Chinese-English version, you should choose a high-quality, reputable publishing house or author to ensure the quality and accuracy of the book. At the same time, you can also find some English reading resources such as online translation tools, English reading websites, or book recommendation websites to help you better understand and read English books.
