I will get back to you later after I have some time to look at your deck, but right off the bat I notice that you have quite a lot of cards in your deck that you only have one copy of. That generally is not a good thing. One suggestion from me would be to get rid of your bloodcrazed neonates and replace them with more copies of Stromkirk Noble.

Bump in the Night doesn't trigger bloodthirst, if that is why you have it in your sideboard. Also, I would recommend cutting out your Geth for an additional Sheoldred. With Olivia Voldaren you already have mythics that help you take control of your opponents creatures, and Sheoldred is important for your morbid to trigger. (Not saying that Geth is a bad card, just that having two Sheoldreds is better than having one of each, because you need Sheoldred to stoke the morbid fires). You may not be able to drag your opponent's creatures out of the graveyard, but you will be able to pull your own out using Sheoldred. You may want to try using Go for the Throats instead of the Victim of the Nights. Your doom blades will be able to take care of the artifact creatures, and your Go for the Throats will be able to take care of the black creatures, thus creating complete coverage. Actually, this deck would probably be better off with just a start-over, (Not saying that it is a bad deck, just saying that it is difficult to make adjustments to it without just taking it apart and putting it back together with certain card combinations already in mind for full play sets) but keeping with the original main structure, these are the recommendations that I would make. There may be better ideas out there, but these are the ones which are currently in my head. Hope that I helped out a little.

Thank you for the suggestions. I currently only have one Sheoldred and one Stromkirk Noble which is why there is a Geth and two bloodcrazed neonate's. There are actually two Geth's I made a typo. I could buy another Sheoldred for cheap but I have not been able to find Stromkirk cheaply. The bump in the night was because of the Flashback potential, the only think is that I usually would want to play something else with six mana and It would only come in Handy if I had no cards to play. The go for the throat is a great idea, I'll definitely be using them once I get them.
