Is there an easy way to create standalone .exe files from Lua scripts? Basically this would involve linking the Lua interpreter and the scripts.
I believe it is possible (PLT Scheme allows the creation of standalone executables in the same way), but how, exactly?

Essentially, the main two options are: (1) append your Lua code to a precompiled exe file, such that it will be loaded and executed when that exe file is run, and (2) convert your Lua code into real executable by compiling it to bytecode, then to C, and then to your target platform.
Lua.exe file information Lua.exe process in Windows Task Manager. The process known as Lua Console Standalone Interpreter belongs to software Kaseya Scripting Component or Kaseya Scripting component or Lua - The Programming Language by Lua.org.
Check out for srlua. It does what you need.
It's from one of the Lua authors. On this address there is also pre-compiled Windows binaries, so that would be even easier for you I think.
