    Does a votive candle have to be in a cup, or can it burn without being in a container?

    It does not need a container in order to burn. The container is there only to contain the melted wax.

    What if the pumpkin is rotting?

    Throw it in the compost. In future, bleach the pumpkin before it rots by first bleaching the outside then the inside, as that will keep it from rotting.
