Default Sorry for an urgent advice on the use of punctuation, thanks teachers

My friend's brother, Edward, kept bragging on how brave he was and how scary his costume was (! or .)

Do I need an exclamation mark to end the sentence above? Please advise, thanks, teachers.

The exclamation point serves to show how irritated your are with Edward.
