Pumpkin seed germinated! I'm surprised that 15-year-old pumpkin seed is still viable. I saved these seed from a pumpkin that grew in my garden in 2007.

How did you keep the seeds? In a dark dry space or in the refrigerator?

The seed was not refrigerated or frozen, but kept dry inside a plastic bag placed in a box in a room of my house that is usually temperature controlled, but not always. Several years ago, the seed endured the hottest part of a summer with no air conditioning. There was nothing extraordinary about the seed storage. Anybody could do this.
