Starting with Chapter 1, we'll take you through where to find every single note.
South of Midnight - Where To Find All Notes - Chapter 1
There are only 3 notes to find in the first chapter of the game, and they're all in Bunny's house. So don't worry about looking around for anything until Hazel wakes up in Bunny's house after the night of the storm.
Bunny's note to Lily on tea - You can find this note in the room where Hazel wakes up. Look to your right, where you'll see a desk and a mirror. On that desk is the first note and the first layer of Bunny's character beginning to unravel.
Bunny's journal entry, 1982 - This note and the next are both in the same room, Bunny's office. You'll climb into this room by climbing the ledges around the house, and you'll find this note on the desk to your left when you enter the room.
Bunny's journal entry, 1989 & 2003 - You'll find these two journal entries as one note on the red chair, immediately in front of you when you enter Bunny's office.
And that's all the notes for Chapter 1 in South of Midnight. Only 100 more to go!
