I believe you should be running more cards that require you to discard as an additional cost (ie, Drekavec) so you can trigger Madness with other abilities instead of having a static ability doing that for you.

Example
Cast "Drekavec".
Discard "Dark Withering".
Play "Dark Withering" for its Madness cost.

OR

Cast Avatar of Discord.
Discard any Combination of "Dregscape Zombie" / "Dark Withering" / "Big Game Hunter".
Play the discarded cards for their Madness Cost.

Jagged Poppet is a very nice card, but it doesn't support your ultimate goal of getting things out in the Discard / Madness / Unearth combo, so I'd replace that with something that does.

You will almost never want to hard cast Madness cards. It'd definitely be viable to do the same with Unearth, but to get the most utility out of it, better to hard cast those.

Definitely on the right track though! Great job!!
