We analyze some signatures of neutral Higgs bosons, produced in high energy proton (anti)proton collisions, which decay primarily to top quarks. This channel is clouded by a large irreducible $t\bar t$ background. We investigate the $t\bar t$ invariant-mass distribution in the lepton+jets decay mode of $t\bar t$ and a $t\bar t$ spin-spin correlation in the dilepton decay mode. At the LHC such Higgs bosons can be detected in the $t\bar t$ invariant-mass spectrum, and the spin-spin correlation studied by us is also sensitive to a Higgs boson if this particle has a sizeable pseudoscalar component.
