For most shoppers, I’d start with the Panefright Halloween Window Projector with 40 Scenes: its broad scene selection offers more variety than the single-character designs. The 720P Halloween Window Projector with Projection Screen is a standout for buyers who want a screen included, while the WYSE Halloween and Christmas Window Projector with 12 Movies brings more use beyond October. The main tradeoff is between a focused, memorable ghost effect and a larger library of scenes or holiday clips; placement, window size, and ambient light also shape the result. I compare all nine options by their stated features, setup needs, and best-fit use cases. Continue reading for the full breakdown and a guide to choosing the right projector for your windows.

Key Takeaways
- Panefright’s 40 scenes make it the strongest choice for buyers who want more content variety in one Halloween-focused projector.
- The 720P model’s included projection screen sets it apart for shoppers who need a ready-made surface rather than a window-only setup.
- WYSE and the 12 Mini Movies model offer Halloween and Christmas content, making them more versatile than the Halloween-only picks.
- Ghost Bride and White Boy Ghost designs prioritize a specific character effect over a broad library, which suits a display built around one focal point.
- The two 12-in-1 Outdoor models share the same listed feature set, so buyers should compare the exact listing details and included accessories rather than assume they provide different content.

More Details on Our Top Picks
Peeking Window Ghost Halloween Projector Light
The Peeking Window Ghost is the most focused pick here: it projects one ghostly face with a continuous water-wave ripple, giving a window or wall a sense of motion without choosing scenes or connecting a playback device. Its single projector and matching projection card also make setup more direct than the Panefright Halloween Window Projector, which offers 40 scenes but needs its included screen and a darker room for its window effect. The tradeoff is variety: this model is built around one look, so it will not suit decorators who want to change the display through the night. It runs from a cord, and its automatic shutoff after 3–4 hours may interrupt a longer event. I’d choose it for a compact, low-fuss ghost effect, not an all-night display.
Pros:- Continuous ripple effect adds motion to the single ghost design.
- Can project onto windows, walls, garage doors, and screens.
- Includes a matching projection card for a straightforward setup.
Cons:- Automatic shutoff after 3–4 hours can interrupt longer decorating sessions.
- One projection card limits scene variety compared with the Panefright model’s 40 built-in scenes.
- Corded power and nighttime-focused use limit placement and daytime visibility.
Best for: Decorators who want one animated ghost effect on a window, wall, garage door, or screen with minimal setup.
Not ideal for: Hosts who need a display to run past 3–4 hours without restarting it, or buyers who want multiple scenes or custom video.
- Light source:LED
- Power source:Corded electric
- Material:Plastic
- Dimensions:6.49 × 4.33 × 4.33 in
- Included:1 projector and 1 projection card
- Automatic shutoff:After 3–4 hours
Our verdict“Choose this projector for a simple, moving ghost face, but pick Panefright if you want a varied window show.”
Panefright Halloween Window Projector with 40 Scenes
Panefright is the strongest choice in this group for a scene-changing window display: its included 60-inch screen and 40 built-in scenes are designed to put the show in the window rather than cast a single pattern onto a surface. The USB connection for custom clips adds flexibility that the Peeking Window Ghost and the two HoneyFair pattern lights do not offer. Its 210-degree rotation and automatic keystone correction also help with positioning indoors, without stakes or outdoor placement. The tradeoff is that this setup depends on a screen and a dark room behind it; creases in a substitute bedsheet can show. At 1.5 pounds and portable, it is easy to reposition, but it is not the pick for buyers who want a weather-resistant outdoor fixture or a simple plug-in ghost image.
Pros:- 40 built-in scenes provide more variety than the single-pattern ghost projectors.
- Includes a 60-inch screen sized for a window display.
- USB connectivity supports custom clips as well as included scenes.
- 210-degree rotation and automatic keystone correction help with indoor positioning.
Cons:- The room behind the screen needs to be dark for the display to look realistic.
- A substitute bedsheet can show creases in the projected image.
- Its screen-based indoor setup is less suited to outdoor projection than the HoneyFair IP55 models.
Best for: Homeowners who want a varied, visible-from-outside window show and can darken the room behind the screen.
Not ideal for: Decorators seeking a weather-resistant outdoor projector or a quick single-pattern effect without a screen and indoor setup.
- Built-in scenes:40
- Included screen:60 in / 152.4 cm
- Rotation:210 degrees
- Keystone correction:Automatic
- Connectivity:USB
- Display type:Holographic
- Wattage:30 watts
- Dimensions and weight:5.5 × 3.5 × 3 in; 1.5 pounds
- Included:Projector, screen, USB with built-in scenes, power adapter
Our verdict“Pick Panefright for a flexible, multi-scene window show if you can provide a screen and dark room.”
HoneyFair Halloween Projector Light – Ghost Bride 3D Dynamic Pattern
The HoneyFair Ghost Bride is a better fit for a weather-exposed outdoor display than either window-focused unit: its IP55 rating and included ground stake support placement outside, while its adjustable head can aim the pattern where a window, wall, or yard feature needs it. The dynamic 3D white ghost-bride image gives it a distinct character compared with the White Boy Ghost model, though both share the same 0–32-foot stated range, 270-degree adjustment, and 6-watt corded design. Its recommended 16–32-foot viewing distance helps set expectations: closer placement may not produce the intended effect. This is still a single-pattern light, not a scene player like Panefright, and it needs an outlet. I’d choose it for a specific outdoor Halloween image, rather than a customizable window show.
Pros:- IP55 water resistance suits seasonal outdoor placement.
- 270-degree adjustable head supports flexible aiming.
- Dynamic 3D ghost-bride pattern offers a distinctive look beside the White Boy Ghost version.
- Uses 6 watts and includes a ground stake and round base.
Cons:- Corded power requires access to an outlet.
- Best effect is recommended at 16–32 feet, limiting close-range placement.
- One pattern offers less content variety than Panefright’s 40 scenes.
Best for: Decorators with an outdoor outlet who want a weather-resistant, adjustable ghost-bride projection across a yard or onto a wall.
Not ideal for: Buyers seeking multiple window scenes, battery operation, or a projection suited to short distances under the recommended range.
- Model number:SE369
- Light source:LED
- Power:Corded electric; 120 volts; 6 watts; 0.2 A
- Projection range:0–32 ft; 16–32 ft recommended
- Head adjustment:270 degrees
- Water resistance:IP55
- Material:Metal
- Dimensions and weight:4.3 × 4 × 6.7 in; 15.04 ounces
- Included:Ground stake, projector light, round base
Our verdict“Choose the Ghost Bride for an adjustable outdoor character projection, not for a varied indoor window program.”
Outdoor Halloween Projector Light with White Boy Ghost
The White Boy Ghost projector makes sense when the main challenge is aiming an outdoor light at a particular window, wall, or yard surface. Its 270-degree-adjustable head, ground stake, and round base give it placement options similar to the Ghost Bride model, and its IP55 water resistance supports seasonal outdoor use. The choice between the two HoneyFair patterns is mainly about the image you want; their listed range, power, and physical dimensions match. The key drawback here is the 16-foot power cord, which can dictate where the projector sits unless an outlet is already nearby. Like the Peeking Window Ghost, it provides a focused ghost effect rather than a library of scenes, but unlike that model, it is specified for outdoor weather resistance.
Pros:- 270-degree adjustable head allows flexible projection placement.
- IP55 water resistance suits outdoor seasonal displays.
- Includes both a ground stake and round base for different placement options.
- 6-watt operation uses less power than the 30-watt Panefright projector.
Cons:- The 16-foot power cord may restrict placement near the desired projection surface.
- Corded power requires an accessible outlet.
- Single ghost pattern cannot match the scene variety of Panefright.
Best for: Outdoor decorators who want a single white ghost image and have an outlet within reach of the intended projection spot.
Not ideal for: Buyers who need a long reach to an outlet, want custom scenes, or prefer a screen-based window show like Panefright.
- Model:HoneyFair SE369
- Projection range:0–32 ft
- Projector head adjustment:270 degrees
- Water resistance:IP55
- Power:Corded electric; 120 volts; 6 watts; 0.2 A
- Material:Metal
- Dimensions:4.3 × 4 × 6.7 in
- Included components:Ground stake, projector light, round base
- Power cord:16 ft
Our verdict“Pick this model for a weather-resistant ghost image and flexible aiming, provided the 16-foot cord reaches your outlet.”
720P Halloween Window Projector with Projection Screen
This portable projector is the most versatile playback option here: HDMI, USB, and screen mirroring let buyers use compatible devices or stored media, rather than being limited to a fixed ghost pattern. Its 180-degree rotating lens and stated maximum 100-inch image offer more aiming and size flexibility than the Peeking Window Ghost, while the built-in 3W speaker can add basic sound without a separate audio device. Those extras come with a clear image-quality tradeoff: native resolution is 1024 × 720, below the listed maximum display resolution, so buyers should not treat the maximum figure as native detail. The speaker is modest, too. Compared with Panefright, this model emphasizes device playback and general use rather than 40 built-in Halloween scenes and an included 60-inch window screen.
Pros:- USB, HDMI, and screen mirroring offer several playback paths.
- 180-degree lens rotation helps aim the image at a window or screen.
- Can project images up to 100 inches from about 2 meters away.
- Built-in 3W speaker provides basic audio without another device.
Cons:- Native resolution is 1024 × 720, below the listed maximum display resolution.
- The 3W built-in speaker is limited for larger rooms or outdoor use.
- Unlike Panefright, it does not list 40 built-in scenes or an included 60-inch screen.
Best for: Buyers who want to play Halloween clips from a phone, tablet, USB drive, or HDMI source and also use the projector beyond seasonal window decor.
Not ideal for: Shoppers who want a high-detail native image, strong built-in audio, or a dedicated window projector with a supplied screen and ready-made scene library.
- Native resolution:1024 × 720
- Maximum display resolution:1920 × 1080
- Maximum image size:100 inches
- Lens rotation:180 degrees
- Connectivity:USB, HDMI, screen mirroring
- Built-in speaker:3 watts
- Power:30 watts; 120 volts
- Dimensions and weight:7 × 6 × 8 in; 1.5 pounds
- Mounting type:Tabletop
Our verdict“Choose this projector for flexible device playback and casual audio, but select Panefright for a ready-made window scene collection.”
12-in-1 Outdoor Halloween Projector with 3D Dynamic Patterns
For a yard or a broad exterior wall, this projector’s up-to-27-foot range gives it more placement flexibility than the WYSE Halloween and Christmas Window Projector with 12 Movies, which is designed around a supplied window screen. Its eight moving Halloween patterns and four Christmas patterns also make it useful beyond October, while three color options let you change the look without swapping devices. The 270° swiveling head helps aim the image from a stake or flat surface, and the 16-foot cord offers some freedom to position it near an outlet. The tradeoff is that it is an outdoor pattern light rather than a movie-style window display; the clearest effect is specified for 10–27 feet, and direct sun on the lens calls for a sun hood.
Pros:- Eight Halloween and four Christmas patterns provide seasonal variety.
- Warm white, red, and green options change the projection’s appearance.
- 270° swivel head supports flexible aiming.
- 16-foot cord and ground stake support outdoor placement.
Cons:- Best projection is limited to the stated 10–27-foot range.
- Corded power restricts placement to areas near an outlet.
- Direct sunlight on the lens requires a sun hood.
Best for: Homeowners projecting moving seasonal patterns across a yard or large outdoor surface who want one corded light for Halloween and Christmas.
Not ideal for: Shoppers seeking character-driven movies on a window screen, or anyone who needs a battery-powered projector or clear results outside the recommended 10–27-foot range.
- Patterns:8 Halloween and 4 Christmas
- Light source:LED
- Projection distance:Up to 27 ft; recommended 10–27 ft
- Swivel head:270°
- Colors:Warm white, red, green
- Power and cord:Corded electric; 16 ft cord
- Mounting and weather resistance:Ground stake or floor mount; waterproof construction
- Dimensions and material:4 × 4 × 12 in; ABS
Our verdict“Choose this model for adjustable, long-range seasonal patterns outdoors, not for movie-style window scenes.”
WYSE Halloween and Christmas Window Projector with 12 Movies
The WYSE is the clearest fit for shoppers who want seasonal movies on a window, rather than patterns scattered across a yard. It includes a tripod and window screen, so the basic display setup comes in the box; its six Halloween and six Christmas movies also give it a different kind of variety from the moving light patterns of the 12-in-1 Outdoor Halloween Projector with 3D Dynamic Patterns. A 3.5 mm audio jack allows connection to external speakers, but amplified sound is not built in, so buyers should plan for separate audio equipment if sound matters. At 15 watts and 1.7 pounds, it is a portable tabletop option. Product listings give conflicting dimensions and weights, which makes exact fit and portability harder to judge before purchase.
Pros:- Six Halloween and six Christmas movies cover two decorating seasons.
- Includes a window screen and tripod for a ready-to-set-up display.
- 3.5 mm audio jack supports external speakers.
- Portable tabletop design weighs 1.7 pounds according to the listing.
Cons:- External speakers are needed for amplified sound.
- Conflicting listed dimensions and weights make placement planning less certain.
- Tabletop window projection is less suited to broad outdoor coverage than the 12-in-1 pattern projectors.
Best for: Decorators who want an indoor tabletop projector, included screen, and seasonal movie clips visible from outside through a window.
Not ideal for: Buyers who want a weatherproof yard light, built-in amplified audio, or dependable sizing details for a tightly planned installation.
- Movies:12 total: 6 Halloween and 6 Christmas
- Display type:Holographic
- Connectivity:3.5 mm audio jack
- Power:15 watts; 120 volts
- Mounting:Tabletop; tripod included
- Included items:Projection lamp, power adapter, manual, tripod, window screen
- Listed dimensions:10.5 × 6.6 × 7.9 in; also listed as 22.5 × 21 × 6.5 cm
- Listed weight:1.7 lb; also listed as 900 g
Our verdict“Pick the WYSE for a portable, screen-based window movie display if you can work around separate speakers and inconsistent size information.”
12-in-1 Outdoor Halloween Projector with 3D Dynamic Patterns
This version suits decorators who want one projector for several locations: its listing supports indoor or outdoor use and floor placement, while the 16-foot cord and adjustable head help with aiming. The eight Halloween and four Christmas patterns, paired with warm white, red, and green light, give it the same broad seasonal palette as the B0H2DZT4H5 12-in-1 projector. The practical distinction is its stated versatility of placement, rather than a clearly documented ground stake. It reaches up to 27 feet, though the recommended 10–27-foot range and preference for a light-colored surface limit where it will look its best. Like its close counterpart, it needs corded power, and direct sun on the lens calls for the included hood.
Pros:- Twelve moving patterns include both Halloween and Christmas designs.
- Three LED color options add flexibility to the display.
- 270° adjustable tilt helps direct the projection.
- Listed for indoor and outdoor use, with a 16-foot power cord.
Cons:- Requires access to a corded power source.
- Works best on a light-colored surface, which can limit placement choices.
- Best effect is specified for 10–27 feet, and direct sun requires the included hood.
Best for: Decorators who plan to move a corded seasonal pattern projector between indoor and outdoor floor setups and can aim it at a light-colored surface.
Not ideal for: Buyers who need a battery-powered unit, a clearly specified ground stake, or a window-screen movie projector like the WYSE.
- Patterns:12 total: 8 Halloween and 4 Christmas
- Projection range:Up to 27 ft; best effect at 10–27 ft
- Adjustable tilt:270°
- Light source and colors:LED; warm white, red, green
- Power and cord:Corded electric; 16 ft cord
- Mounting and use:Floor mount; listed for indoor and outdoor use
- Material and dimensions:ABS; 7 × 4 × 4 in
- Special features:3D dynamic projection; multiple pattern discs; color changing
Our verdict“Choose this model if you want a movable seasonal pattern light for different locations and have a suitable surface and outlet.”
Halloween and Christmas Window Projector with 12 Mini Movies
With a maximum throw distance of five feet, this WHZQDD projector is a close-range choice for a window, party area, or patio setup where the unit can sit near its screen. Its six Halloween and six Christmas animations offer the movie format of the WYSE projector, and this model also includes a screen and tripod. The stated 1024 × 768 resolution gives buyers a concrete display specification, but the short throw is a major placement limit compared with either 12-in-1 outdoor pattern projector, which is listed for projection up to 27 feet. Its 3.5 mm jack provides a connection option, though listed connectivity details are otherwise unknown. I’d favor it when a compact, nearby screen setup is the priority, not when projecting across a yard.
Pros:- Includes six Halloween and six Christmas animations.
- Screen and tripod are supplied for window projection.
- 1024 × 768 native resolution is listed.
- Portable design can be moved between nearby display locations.
Cons:- Maximum throw distance of five feet sharply limits placement.
- Connectivity details are listed as unknown apart from the 3.5 mm jack.
- Unlike the outdoor 12-in-1 projectors, it is not specified for long-range yard projection.
Best for: Buyers who can place a portable projector within five feet of a window screen for seasonal clips at home or a party.
Not ideal for: Anyone who needs long-distance exterior projection, broad yard coverage, or clearly documented device connectivity beyond the 3.5 mm jack.
- Display type:DLP
- Resolution:Native and maximum: 1024 × 768
- Maximum throw distance:5 ft
- Movies:12 total: 6 Halloween and 6 Christmas
- Contrast ratio:1000:1 to 2000:1
- Connectivity:3.5 mm jack; other connectivity details listed as unknown
- Mounting and included items:Tripod mount; power cable, screen, tripod
- Dimensions and weight:9.5 × 5.1 × 10 in; 900 g
Our verdict“Choose this projector for a portable, close-range movie display, but skip it if your window or viewing surface is more than five feet away.”
How We Picked
I compared the nine options using the details provided for each model, with priority given to how directly its projection format suits a Halloween window display. The main factors were scene or movie variety, whether the product includes a projection screen, whether it is described as an outdoor model, and whether it offers content for other holidays. I also looked at how easily a shopper can identify the intended effect: a named ghost character, a collection of Halloween scenes, or a holiday movie set.
The ranking favors options with a clear advantage for a common buyer need, rather than treating every projector as interchangeable. Panefright leads for scene variety, while the 720P projector earns a distinct place for its included screen and WYSE stands out for two-holiday use. More specialized character projectors rank lower for general-purpose flexibility, though they can suit a focused display better. Where two listings share the same stated name and features, I treat them as a tie rather than inventing a difference the supplied details do not support.
Factors to Consider When Choosing Halloween Window Projectors
Choosing a Halloween window projector is less about collecting the most features and more about matching the effect to the window, viewing distance, and display you have in mind. I’d settle those practical details before choosing between a character effect, a large scene library, or a projector with holiday content for later use.
Match the Projection Style to Your Display
Start by deciding what you want passersby to notice: one ghost framed in a window, a changing sequence of scenes, or a clip that fills a larger viewing area. A named character projector can make a display feel deliberate, but it gives you less variety if you want to change the look during the season. Scene collections offer more options, though a larger number of scenes does not automatically mean each one suits your window. Check whether the listing describes a screen or a window-facing projection before buying. A screen can be useful when the glass itself is unsuitable or the image needs a defined surface, but it also adds another item to place and store. Avoid choosing by scene count alone; the effect that fits your window matters more than a headline number.
Check Window Size, Placement, and Light
Projection results depend on the available surface and where the projector can sit, not just on the model name. Measure the window area you want to fill and note any muntins, curtains, or reflective coverings that could interrupt the image. Outdoor placement may make a projector easier to aim at a window, but the word “outdoor” alone does not establish weather resistance or a suitable mounting method. Look for those details in the product listing before leaving equipment exposed. Ambient light can also reduce the visibility of a projection, so a bright porch or street-facing window may call for a darker placement or a smaller display area. Planning the position first helps avoid buying a projector whose intended setup does not fit your home.
Choose Variety That You Will Actually Use
Scene counts and movie collections can make a projector seem more flexible, but consider how often you expect to change the display. If one strong ghost image is the point, a character-focused model may be simpler to shop for than a library of clips. If you want a different look for a party, a long Halloween season, or multiple windows, more content can be useful. Compare the type of variety as well as the amount: themed scenes, dynamic patterns, and mini movies are not the same viewing experience. Check whether the listing explains how content is selected or changed, since a large library is less helpful if controls are unclear. Paying extra for variety makes sense only when you expect to use it.
Decide Whether a Second Holiday Matters
Halloween-and-Christmas models can earn their place if you have a storage plan and want one projector to return for another season. That versatility may be more useful than a larger Halloween-only library for households that decorate for both holidays. It is not a free benefit, though: the Christmas content may add little if the projector will be packed away after October. Check that the listing clearly identifies both holiday collections and the number or type of included clips. Also think about whether the same window and setup will work for winter displays. Choose a dual-holiday model for a real second use, not simply because two themes sound like a better deal.
Review Included Accessories and Setup Details
Included equipment can change how much work the display takes to assemble. The 720P option names a projection screen, while other listings may depend on a window or another surface; confirm exactly what comes in the package before ordering. Check for the power supply, mounting hardware, remote or control method, and cable length in the listing rather than assuming they are included. These details matter especially when the projector must sit outside or across a room from the outlet. A screen can solve a surface problem but adds setup and storage, while a simpler projector may be easier to put away. Compare the full package against your planned location, not just the projector’s headline features.
Treat Similar Listings as Separate Until Details Match
Two products in this roundup use the same 12-in-1 Outdoor Halloween Projector name and describe 3D dynamic patterns. The supplied names do not establish a difference between them, so I would not assume one has better brightness, build quality, or accessories. Before choosing between duplicate or near-duplicate listings, compare the model identifier, package contents, projection images, power details, and seller-provided specifications. This is also a useful habit when a product name emphasizes resolution or “3D” without explaining what the term means for the projected effect. If the details remain identical, treat them as equivalent options rather than paying extra based on wording alone. Verify the exact listing you plan to buy.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a 40-scene projector a better choice than a single ghost design?
It depends on whether you value changing content or a consistent focal point. Panefright’s 40 scenes suit buyers who want more variety from one Halloween projector, while the Peeking Window Ghost and character-themed models are more direct choices for a display built around one figure. A larger library may be wasted if you plan to leave one effect running all season. Check what kind of scenes are included, since a count alone does not tell you whether the content fits your style. Choose the focused design if the character itself is the attraction; choose the scene library if you expect to switch things up.
Do I need the included projection screen, or can I use my window?
You may be able to project onto a suitable window, but the result depends on the glass, background, room lighting, and intended setup. The 720P model is the only option in this roundup that explicitly names an included projection screen, which gives it an advantage for buyers who need a dedicated surface. A screen can also mean extra placement and storage work, so it is not automatically preferable. Check whether the product is meant to project from inside or outside and what surface its instructions specify. If the listing does not make that clear, confirm the setup before purchasing.
Can an outdoor Halloween projector safely stay outside in bad weather?
The word “outdoor” in a product name does not confirm a weather-resistance rating. Before placing any projector outside, check the listing for an explicit rating, approved operating conditions, and instructions for protecting its power connection. If those details are missing, plan a sheltered location rather than assuming it can handle rain or damp conditions. Placement also affects how easily you can aim the projector at a window and reach an outlet. For a display that needs to sit outdoors, treat weather protection and mounting as purchase requirements, not minor extras.
Should I choose a Halloween-and-Christmas model if I only decorate in October?
Probably not unless the second set of content solves a specific display need. The WYSE model and the Halloween and Christmas Window Projector with 12 Mini Movies offer holiday versatility, but that feature adds little if you will not use the Christmas clips. A Halloween-focused projector may be a better match if its scenes or character effect suit your display more closely. Consider where you will store the projector and whether you will set it up again later in the year. Buy dual-holiday content for a planned second use, not simply for a longer feature list.
How should I choose between the two 12-in-1 Outdoor Projector listings?
The product details provided for both listings use the same name and describe 3D dynamic patterns, so there is no supported feature difference to rank them on here. Compare the exact listing’s model number, included accessories, power specifications, and setup instructions before making a choice. Look for clear information about the projection surface and outdoor use, since those details can affect whether the projector fits your space. If the supplied features and package contents match, treat the listings as equivalent rather than assuming a difference from the title. When key details are unclear, seek clarification before ordering.
Conclusion
For the broadest Halloween scene selection, I’d choose Panefright’s 40-scene projector as the best overall pick. The best value depends on the package and listing details, but the Peeking Window Ghost is a sensible value-style choice for shoppers who want a focused effect without prioritizing a large content library. For a premium-feeling setup with a dedicated surface, I’d look at the 720P projector with its included screen, while the WYSE 12 Movies model is the better fit for someone planning both Halloween and Christmas displays. Beginners who want a clear, recognizable theme can start with a character-led ghost design; buyers who need a specific character effect can compare the Ghost Bride and White Boy Ghost models. If you want dynamic patterns or outdoor placement, review the details for the two 12-in-1 Outdoor listings closely, since their supplied features do not show a difference. Pick the projector that suits your window and intended effect, rather than choosing by scene count alone.
