Looks similar to the event deck, Spiraling Doom... but I'll avoid further comparison.
Personally would take more {Tragic Slips} than {Go Fo the Throat}, but I do not see much (if any...) sac outlets. {Alter Reap} is great (for early rounds), though I rather run the utility land that is similar {Grim Backwoods} if the deck goes for midrange or longer. Creature wise, I'll run more {Birds of Paradise} for the color fix and ramp, plus a early flyer to make use of those +1 counters from {Hunger of the Howlpack} and {Ulvenwald Bear}. Personally, {Strangleroot Geist} is an amazing aggro and would auto run 4of and drop a {Young Wolf} or both.
Your biggest threat is {Mirran Crusader} so a {Black Sun Zenith} should.
{Mortarpod} is another sac outlet but would not help against Mirran.

You are missing 2 cards that I think will do great in this deck. The problem is is that they're old cards, but I regress. Here are the 2 that I think you need to put in this:
{Mortarary}
And
{Bone Harvest}

I would put a young wolf in this deck since its a one drop

I never had much consistency with the Banshee, so maybe you can run 1of The Banshee, drop a Swamp, and maybe drop an Undying Evil to make space for 3 Young Wolf as repeatable fodder/chump blocker for Morbid triggers.

When I ran a deck like this I had a lot of luck using {mortarpod} actually and it helped trigger morbid and undying very nicely. I also had a set of {young wolf} which I would recommend. You may want to consider {ulvenwald bear} I think it's an under appreciated three drop that works well in this kind of deck and I'm not sure you need birds of paradise unless you're increasing the {vorapede} and gravetiller count to 4 and also you may want to consider {sylvok lifestaff} it's worked well for me with {mortarpod} and {altar's reap} along with {reassembling skeleton}
