MUMBAI : Are you a horror film fanatic? Do you enjoy the suspense and thrills that come from watching scary movies? Then continue reading to discover the terrifying thrillers and add them to your watch list. You will also learn to bypass geo-restrictions and stream your favorites with a smart TV. 

Before we get to the list, let’s see how helpful a VPN is. 

Streaming on your smart TV while protected by a VPN is possible.

A smart TV allows you to enjoy streamed entertainment from the comfort of your sofa without having to huddle around a computer or deal with many wires. But there is always that nagging disappointment when you can't watch a new release or get over the fear of missing out on some thriller because of your location. Well, there is a solution for that,  a VPN!

With a virtual private network (VPN), you may encrypt all of your internet traffic and route it through a server in the country of your liking. A VPN changes your IP address to a different location, making your traffic look like it is coming from another place instead of your own. It is entirely safe, and using a VPN for your smart TV will allow you to enjoy Amazon Prime Video, Netflix America, Hulu, or BBC iPlayer. Additionally, your Internet Service Provider (ISP) cannot know your online activity because of the encryptor feature. That means they will not throttle your connection.

There is a theory that VPNs don’t work with smart TVs. While there is some truth in this theory, there are ways to go around it. Most smart TVs do not support VPNs, but you can use your router, PC, or desktop to overcome this challenge. Create a secure wifi hotspot with your device, or link your VPN to your router.

How to Choose a VPN

For streaming, you will need a reliable, secure, and super-fast VPN service that can access a wide variety of streaming sites. There are, of course, the reputable VPN companies, but this is what to look  out for

The VPN is compatible with your wireless router.
The VPN is super-fast and allows for buffer-free streaming at high download speeds.
The VPN is compatible with Netflix, BBC, AmazonPrime, and other top movie sites.
The VPN maintains a vast network of servers.
