Where's everyone decaying?

Hi

There is a slang expression in my language whose literal translation in English would be something like this?

  1. Where's everyone decaying?
  2. Where's everyone dead?
  3. Where's everyone buried?

We talk like this when, for example, we cannot find any of our staff members in an emergency. Another example: an old man needs to get out of bed and he needs some help. He shouts to his family members but there is no response. Any equivalent in English?

Thanks,

Tom

I can't think of anything as colorful as yours. We might say "Where'd everybody go?" or "Where is everybody?"

Where's everyone hiding? is the only (approximate) equivalent I can think of.
