Rolling has been the subject of several written works. His crime spree inspired screenwriter Kevin Williamson to pen the script of the popular 1996 slasher film "Scream". Sondra London collaborated with Rolling on "The Making of a Serial Killer: The True Story of the Gainesville Murders in the Killer's Own Words." Rolling is the subject of the book "Beyond Murder" by John Philpin and John Donnelly. Author Kevin Given admitted that he based the serial killer David Reynolds from his novel "Foul Blood" on Rolling. A 2007 independent feature film entitled "The Gainesville Ripper", based on accounts of the killings, was shot in the Gainesville and Jacksonville, Florida areas. In the film, Rolling is portrayed by Zachary Memos. Rolling was also the subject of an episode of "Body of Evidence: From the Case Files of Dayle Hinman", a Court TV show (transmitted as "Crime Scene USA: Body of Evidence" on Discovery Channel in the UK) and an episode of "Forensic Factor" titled "Killing Spree", which originally aired on Discovery Channel Canada and was rebroadcast in America on the Science Channel. Rolling was also the subject of a 2010 episode of "Cold Blood", and was briefly mentioned in a 2012 episode of "Motives and Murders" entitled "Not Again". He was also featured in a 2015 episode of "Nightmare Next Door". In 2013, TV documentary series "The Real Story" aired an episode profiling the movie "Scream". It aired July 28, 2013, and tells the story of Rolling’s murders in graphic detail. The book "Drifter" is also based on the 1990 Gainesville murders. The song "Harold Rollings Hymn" from the 2007 John 5 album, "The Devil Knows My Name" is inspired by Rolling. An episode of "Murder Made Me Famous", which aired November 24, 2018, chronicled the case. The premiere episode of "Mark of a Killer", titled "Posed to Kill", also documented the case. While on death row at Florida State Prison, Rolling wrote songs and poems and drew pictures. His works have been referred to as an example of murderabilia.
