South of Midnight is the latest game from Compulsion Studios and is their first under the Xbox Game Studios banner. The game is filled with all kinds of lore and collectibles. There are a total of 103 scattered across the game’s 14 chapters. The collectibles are referred to as "Readables". This guide will help you find all those in Chapter 1, Night Of The Flood. Doing so will get you the Lore Master achievement.
There are also 9 Health Filaments in the game that don't technically count as a collectible, but you need them to upgrade your health. We will cover them as well. Not every chapter has a health filament, however.
Chapter 1 only has 3 readable, and they are fairly easy to spot on your own, but in case you need a guide, let’s get into it!
1/3 – Bunny's Note To Lily
As soon as you wake up in the guest room of Bunny's house and take control of Hazel, in front of you will be a note on a desk.

2/3 – Bunny's Desk Entry
After doing a bit of platforming outside the mansion, you will come to Bunny's office. On the desk, you will find the second Readable.

3/3 – Bunny's Lounge Chair Entry
In the corner of the office, you will see a lounge chair. On top will be the third and final Readable in chapter 1.

That's it for chapter 1, see you in chapter 2 where the Readables become more abundant! You can also see below for any links you need for our extensive South of Midnight Coverage.
