Omamori grant special abilities when equipped by Hinako in Silent Hill f. With a fairly large selection of Omamori, it will take you some time to gather them all up, including a playthrough of New Game Plus for the four Omamori that are exclusive to that mode.
This guide for Silent Hill f is a comprehensive list of every single Omamori as well as their in-game effects.
Hidden Omamori
There are 17 Omamori that are secreted throughout the game, split between standard and NG+ playthroughs. The initial thirteen are:
Whale
When using a restorative item, you will not be interrupted by normal attacks.
Ebisugaoka
During ‘Investigate the house’, after acquiring the Bloody Key, look for the Back Door Key in the opposite room. Take that downstairs to open the door leading back outside. Descend the ladder to find it on the right.
Cat
Greatly decreases the damage taken while Dodging.
The Path
During the course of ‘Find the correct Ema (0/3)’, head to the left section while looking over the Ema, and find the Cat one in particular. Flip it over to find the Omamori. Try getting it before starting the puzzle, and if you cannot interact with it, try again after completing the puzzle.
Pine
Increases Max Health.
Ebisugaoka
During ‘Head to Rinko’s house’, find the Doctor’s house while heading in the northerly direction. Go around back till you find a ladder you can ascend to enter the window at the top.

Enter the newly ajar door to the adjoining room and open the nearest drawer on the immediate left for the Omamori.
