Carnival of souls is quite the pick! I don't think I would run it, seems too easy to kill yourself. Though with enough aristocrats effects, I suppose you can get by.
In my grenzo deck I have about 20 non-creature cards. 2 of them inherently can be used in the graveyard and I decided on the others because I needed more interaction in the group I was playing against.
Out of those ones which you aren't running and I don't see in your maybe pile or deck that you should consider are:
Thran Turbine
essentially a sol ring that you can use only during your upkeep on grenzo
Elixir of Immortality
a way to protect your graveyard from someone trying to exile it
Desecrated Tomb
makes each successful grenzo activation net you a Bat
Tel-Jilad Stylus
lets you do 2 things -- repeat an etb of a creature already out, protect a creature from being interacted with. You can even activate grenzo and then use this in response to avoid targeted destruction. I've used this thing on
Faceless Butcher
to save grenzo from boardwipes.
Dark Privilege
lets you block most creatures with grenzo, use it as a sac outlet and increases his power and toughness by 1. It also avoids lots of targeted removal, though not the most popular boardwipes.
Songs of the Damned
depending on where the game is, this can be worse than dark ritual or net you 10 mana.
I would additionally suggest giving
Warp World
a spin because it is some very good disruption, removes enchantments and lands. If you're lucky it can be a red timewalk due to bringing in the lands untapped.
A land you might want is
Scorched Ruins
. As far as you are concerned, once grenzo is out, this is like playing 2 lands for one. though there are obviously downsides.
My mana base consists of 36 lands and 12 creatures that produce mana, or in the case of
Burnished Hart
ramp you.
You have 6 out of the 12, and are running palladium myr which isn't a bad pick and I honestly forgot about it. The 5 which I haven't mentioned are
Basal Thrull
,
Generator Servant
,
Treasure Nabber
,
Blood Vassal
and
Catalyst Elemental
. With the exception of Nabber, they all replace themselves manawise due to generation 2 mana. I would avoid putting in manadorks that do not make 2 or more mana.
You might additionally want to consider
Junktroller
which lets you recur creatures or disrupts someone else's grave.
Since a grenzo deck usually does not cast that many spells, you can try throwing in some asymmetrical effects, such as
Soot Imp
or
Eidolon of the Great Revel
to leverage that, though with the direction your deck is currently in, that doesn't seem necessary.
Additionally Shrieking Mogg can be used both offensively and defensively. If you know it's on the bottom, you can tap down an opponent before their declare attackers step. If it's your turn, tap down their creatures during your declare attackers step and all of their blockers will be tapped. It also neatly fits into the goblin theme you already have present.

If you're going for a more aggro & attack based Alesha build, I highly recommend using a Menace sub-theme. My Alesha deck was more aggro-focused at first, but I recently rehauled it to be more Aristocrats/Combo. Menace can help your creatures get through for damage. I'd suggest checking out:
For evasion help
For creatures that "hit heavy" despite their power, especially if they have Menace or other evasion:
- Grenzo's Ruffians
- Stigma Lasher (More-so Lifegain meta hate)
- Virtus the Veiled
- Raving Dead
- Mirror Entity
- Master of Cruelties (less budget friendly)

Shrieking Mogg may work out better than Midnight Guard

Dark Impostor is really expensive for what it does, although it's nice if you can pull it off a few times. Shrieking Mogg is a really nice card here, actually, as if you bring it back with Alesha you're already tapped and attacking, nice!
The rest of the additions looks good!

Idk what creatures you want to add in for etb effects, you could add dragons and fliers and Dragon Tempest hell, you could go budget and get a Impact Tremors and guys like Blade Splicer and Attended Knight, I mean, if you added black we could get to talking with etb, some shriekmaw, some orzhov pontiff. you know? I'm not too savvy with jeskai etb, I play esper and abzan blink decks. Epochrasite might be dope to blink though. idk spirits might be cool too, but this seems a little slow for some tempo play. you could even play a Shrieking Mogg to buy time until you get out whatever it is you'll be winning with.
