Alright so, as Elwarith takes his turn, the castle lets loose another deep moan. Strahd’s form seems to stabilize and not be able to pass through walls. However, next to you, an apparition appears. Viorela’s ghost rises from her body and uppercuts you, Attack: 7 Damage: 8 necrotic damage, plus you must make a DC 10 Con save or have your Max HP reduced by that much.
Legendary Action: Strahd moves another 30 feet, reappearing next to Elwarith and the corpse of Viorela.
Davmorn’s turn: Davmorn will run thirty feet after Adanmar and cast False Life on himself at 4th level for 23 temp hp.
Legendary Action: Strahd, throughly peeved with an amulet tied to an arrow in his sternum, uppercuts Elwarith... again, Attack: 21 Damage: 2 bludgeoning, however, misses.

Not particularly no, aside from what Adanmar noted. The Vistani are mostly immune to evil here because of their relationship to Strahd. Furthermore, even if their where, you doubt that it would be effective on Strahd, due to his sheer power.

The Revenant eventually manages to reach the dead body of his ally and remembering the gifts he accepted and the Ember Temple, he touches Viorela's cold corp hoping to bring back her to life (Raise Dead)
While this spell normally would take an hour to complete and require a costly toll, the vile magic of the dark powers warps the circumstances of the spell, almost relishing the irony of Strahd’s suffering...
As the revenant makes contact with Viorela’s body, there is a resounding screech as the world suddenly goes monotone. All light in the room seems to contract into Viorela’s body, leaving only darkness behind, and in an instant, returns. Life is forced back into Viorela’s lungs as she sits upright!
Viorela is alive! Also mentally scarred! Yay!

Viorela rises with vengeance burning in her eyes. This damned vampire killed her and, based on the pain that courses through her body now, he would likely kill her again. But that didn't matter. There he's on the ground on the ground tackled by George. She didn't understand exactly why she was given this second life outside of Adanmar's touch and she didn't care to question why he had such a power. Right now all Viorela could see was that bastard lying there.
Viorela seizes her chance and lashes out at him with her whip! Crack!! And again for good measure.

Strahd, who in an instant is tackled by three hundred pounds of raw muscle, roars in rage. This rage is only further compounded when he locks eyes with the living Viorela. The woman struggles to her feet, the bruises from being chocked to death still wrap her neck. In a flash of silver, a gaping wound opens along his throat. While it won’t kill him, man, does it feel good.
Meanwhile, the amulet under Strahd’s chest still burns through his chest as he takes 20 radiant damage from it. Strahd grinds his teeth from the pain as he locks eyes with George, “An ape you are, inside and out.” Strahd casts Polymorph George Save: 11. In a puff of smoke, George becomes a Flying Monkey, adorable and fluffy, but not strong. Strahd push the monkey, (S: 17 vs G: 3) and George no longer pinning him, yet is still stuck on his leg. With an arm flourish, Strahd’s cape straightens and the amulet is sent scattering down the stairs, “Enough! I will slaughter you all!”
Even with the negatives from being a monkey, George still, in a horrifying display, runs the Blood Spear through Strahd’s chest. He is, to say the least, not fond of you right now!

Oh yes! I forgot his Lair Action!
As Strahd swirls his cape (before George attacked), a spiritual arm reaches out from Viorela’s chest. The vengeful spirit grasps her for just a moment to attack herself! Ghost attempts to slash at Viorela: Attack: 19 Damage: 11 necrotic damage
Since George is fond of hugging our good Lord here - I would like to attempt to grab the amulet and put it around George's neck - so he can hug Strahd to death with radiant power pressed between them!

Give it a moment, Viorela was going to take her turn. She’s just a bit busy at the moment haha.
However, allow me to resolve George’s attack.
Strahd is pinned by George, as there is not way that he can avoid such strength. Strahd is pinned to the floor!
