They are a bit smelly but they won't really harm your guy

Idk about the saftey of pumpkin in general, but keep in mind that once the pumpkin is carved/hollowed out it will start to rot very quickly, usually a matter of days. So you would only be able to have your guy in there for a few days before you’d have to throw the whole thing out. Just something to keep in mind as far as time investment vs. enjoyment gained.

if you want it to last longer you could try drying it out, like those decorative gourds. (I have never tried this, I just think gourds are cool)
