Notes can be found in various places in Cry of Fear.

They are used to provide additional context to the game's story, and to offer the player hints that will help solve some of the game's puzzles. They (along with keycodes and objectives) can be accessed from the tab menu at any time under the "notes section".

There are notes present in the apartments, left by The Apartment Predator. And a magazine that provides a phone number, which gives Simon the keycode to a nearby gate, and others providing hints and tips.
